Hello Lifestyle friends, it's a pleasure to greet you again.

Inside the Chorros de Milla Zoo is a terrarium with the same name, is a space where some reptiles and arachnids are housed for their care, preservation and in turn so that the public can identify which ones live in our country, its entrance has a cost of $ 1 per person.

At the beginning of the tour I could see in the outside area some frogs, which are not real but show how it would be to have them close, then inside a glass box was the False Chameleon who has the ability to change the color of his skin according to his mood, he lives in the Andes and eats fruits and invertebrates.

Once in the internal area we found the Andean Tarantula also called "mata caballo" is the second largest and heaviest species of arachnid in our country, it is present in the Andes region and its diet is based on invertebrates, mammals and lizards.

Right next to it was the Boa Dormilona, they kill their prey by constriction although they are not venomous they are quite aggressive, they are found near the Orinoco River and feed on birds and mammals.

The African Gecko is found in African and Asian countries, then we have the Bejuca which is a snake that can be found in any area of our country, it has a very mild venom that only serves to paralyze small prey such as birds or lizards.

The Boa Tornasol is a snake that is not poisonous but kill their prey that can be birds or mammals by constriction, although they are not poisonous are a bit aggressive, on the other hand we have the false coral male that if it is poisonous but because of its small size does not become lethal the same, lives in the north of the Orinoco River.

The Cazadora or Sabanera, feeds on reptiles and is not venomous, it is aggressive but its bite does not produce pain, the Merida Rattlesnake is a small snake that lives in the towns of southern Merida and feeds on small mammals such as mice, while the Common Rattlesnake is aggressive but its bite does not produce pain, the Merida Rattlesnake is a small snake that lives in the towns of southern Merida and feeds on small mammals such as mice, while the Common Rattlesnake is aggressive but its bite does not produce pain is a large species, is venomous and is found in the rest of the country.

The Central Bearded Dragon is a lizard that is typical of desert areas in Australia, the Mapanare is the cause of several accidents in our country for its level of poison that can inject in a bite can cause necrosis and kidney problems, the Hunting Tiger are harmless but hunters by nature.

Then there was the Common Iguana which is vegetarian, not dangerous and in our tropical country we find it walking among the trees.

These specimens are replicas of the Mountain Coral and Falsa Coral eat worms and insects, are harmless until disturbed by humans, have a poison that causes death in about 15 minutes and has no antiophidic serum.

Finally there was the Boa Tragavenado and the best known, they kill their prey by constriction and can be found in various areas of the country, their diet is based on Creole chickens.

I took a picture with the Rattlesnake of Merida made on a large scale to finish a tour full of important information that I was completely unaware of and that is good to keep in mind.

Until next time, kisses.
