Reptiles

NEW FOR 2012!

New to the Aquarium family this year we have a growing family of reptiles including two baby African Spurred Tortoises, who will both grow to enormous proportions as one of the world's biggest tortoises.

Bearded Dragon at St Andrews AquariumSharing their space we have a fabulous team of Bearded Dragons who just love to sunbathe under their heated lamps all day.

And just in the neighbourhood, we have a magnificent Carpet Python who likes to hide among the leaves so be sure to keep an eye out for him. 

Meet the Dragons! Pop along for our daily talks and meet the dragons at 2pm and 4pm.
