Looks like I'll be tinkering with the exhibit this week to see what I can do. After giving it some thought, I might be able to do something like covering a good portion of the cage covered with several "peep" holes so that people can view the snake w/out the snake feeling stressed of being on constant public exhibit.


>>Audobon's display was pretty open(typical of primary forest) but if I remember correctly, it was very dimly lit, in contrast to Cincinatti's display, which was brightly lit.
