AMBASSADOR ANIMALS

Reptiles

Two orange and yellow snakes lie on a bed of brown wood chips, with both heads facing forward and their eyes visible.

Corn Snakes

Salem and Knox are brothers. They hatched in August 2014 and get along well together (other than at mealtime when each gets a little space). Their favorite snacks are mice and they enjoy exploring new smells and burying themselves under the mulch and soil in their house. Both of them are pretty calm and easygoing when it comes to handling—although, since they look alike, we hear they like to trick new keepers by impersonating each other!

Red Footed Tortoise

These 16-year-old brothers, Bolivar and Rivera, are happiest going on long walks in the sunshine, particularly in one of Woodland Park Zoo’s meadows!

Blue Tongued Skink

Blue and Henry use their bright blue tongues to grab tasty bugs and fruits. These lizards can also use their tongues in defensive displays. They puff up, flash their tongues, and hiss!

INSECTS

A large, dark brown cockroach with a shiny segmented back crawling on a piece of rough, textured bark.

Madagascar Hissing Cockroach

At 3 inches long, these are one of the largest roaches in the world! They live in rotting logs on the island of Madagascar—not in the shadows under the kitchen sink. Calm and wingless, these insects are nature’s recyclers.
