Ancient Reproductions not only wants to be a source of quality animals, but also quality information that helps captive keepers understand and appreciate the amazing reptiles in our care. Tuning into academic research is a great way to deepen your understanding of the reptiles you are keeping and can spur new thought on care and management.
