I can't believe they don't have proper heating in the enclosures and actually have to place a hot water bottle in the enclosures when snakes eat.

sounds more like the zoo needs to retire. why would a zoo use water bottles and not a reptile approved heat source....idiots.

But wait it's a zoo.... It's private keepers that don't know how to properly maintain exotics. At least that's what I keep hearing from the HSUS here in Ohio.... lol
