This is one of the few true reptile non profits that is willing to provide advice and medical care for reptiles whether a pet or wild. We do ask for donations rarely but very few people donate to reptiles. We are a 501c3 nonprofit dedicated to studying reptile diseases and husbandry methods. Medical knowledge about reptiles is very limited and most veterinarians have very little formal educational training with reptiles. Reptiles metabolize drugs and medications very differently than mammals resulting in vets killing many of them because of their lack of knowledge. Much more research needs to be done to improve the lives of reptiles and provide proper medical care. That is a goal we work towards. Reptiles can make good companion animals, some are quite intelligent and some are actually affectionate with their owners.
