Exotics Keeper Magazine November 2022 Edição anterior

This month we address some key husbandry topics, from ‘best practice’ for giant snakes to UV for birds. Unfortunately, both areas of exotics keeping seem to have some catching up to do, so we’ve highlighted an excellent example of an anaconda enclosure at Paradise Wildlife Park and outlined the reasons why indoor cage birds need UV lighting.

We also have an unintentional Madagascar focus, as Tim Baker LVI Lead Keeper at Drayton Manor joins us as a guest writer to discuss how the zoo successfully keeps at breed starry night reed frogs. Simon Prentice at Phelsuma Farm also contributes some interesting tips for keeping day geckos.

This month welcomes the addition of our new recurring feature ‘Fish Science’ with Dr David Pool, as well the usual Keeper Basics, species spotlights, fascinating facts and exotics news.
