Top: Recreation: Pets: Reptiles_and_Amphibians: Snakes

This category is for sites about pet snakes. This category includes several sub-categories, with information on specific breeds, ranging from pictorial assays, natural history, captive care and breeding, to why snakes make good pets and where to acquire them. There are also sections on diseases, societies, and rescues.

Sites about snakes in the wild should go to Science/Biology/Flora_and_Fauna/Animalia/Chordata/Reptilia/Snakes.


Boas and Pythons

This category contains information on the captive care and beeding of Eunectus murinus and notaeus the green and yellow Anacondas.
