If interacting with a sloth or bonding with a boa is your thing, we have the shows that have got you covered. Make sure not to miss our venomous snake show, its one of kind! We strongly believe that educating the public and conserving animals are two of our top priorities and we can provide an outlet to do that!

Owned and operated by Father and Son team, Neil Blatner and Greg Mull.

With the support of our amazing family and volunteers, our first show in April 2017 was a huge success with more than 40 Vendors and over 4,500 attendees! Looking to build on that success we now operate in Fresno and Bakersfield. We have done some of the best reptile shows, educational workshops, and animal adoption events in California. We hope to continue to be able to provide the best experience for all animal lovers for many years to come!​

Not to mention, thousands of animals and products that you can see and possibly take home and add to your family!
