The zoo housed some of the rarest reptiles, including the world's heaviest snake (over 375 lbs. as of Feb. 2010), a rare albino alligator, and a 150-year-old alligator snapping turtle. A gift shop offering pets, a photo area where guests could get their photos taken with a large python or boa, and a reptile zoo with guided tours were provided.
