Here is their email address if anyone want to email them!Josh Emms wrote:I find it very appalling that you would have special guests from the show "Rattlesnake Republic" at one of your events. This show is asinine and NOT conservation oriented. These rednecks do appalling things to these snakes and send them to rattlesnake round-ups where the animals are tortured then killed. I saw instances where you could pay $1 to watch them chop off a snake's head! I saw where they were skinning the animals alive and you could see the skinned body writhing around. How you can associate yourself with these barbaric people is beyond me. You will never get any business from me. Your zoo looks very nice, but I will not spend my money there if this is what you support. It goes against everything a zoo should represent.
