Well this made my day. A bit of good news in the paper for once.

In my home city of Sheffield, there are plans to open a reptile and amphibian zoo.

Welcome. I've never seen a reptile and amphibian zoo.
Although decades ago there was a place in Miami called the "Serpentarium". It was run by a Dr. Haas. He and the serpentarium have been gone for a long time.

I'm hoping this kicks off for Steve gilling. Can only be a good thing for reptiles. If done correctly. Very exciting stuff to hear.

When I was a kid in Arizona there was a place called Jack Adams Alligator Farm in the Mesa/Apache Junction area. Mostly reptiles with a few colorful birds thrown in. About once a year they would report one of their "giant" snakes had escaped. The press would dutifully report this and my mom confident the snake could have crawled the 20 miles to our house would check the yard before we could go outside and play.

It sounds like they got themselves some free publicity every year plus neighbors talking about it. "@keepergale Mom, what are you doing?" a neighbor would ask. Her concerned response echoed the free publicity.
