LiVE REPtilE DiSPlayS
The Blacktown City Show Committee would like to welcome Live Reptile Displays back to the Blacktown Show. Located in Sydney and owned by Andrew Melrose, Live Reptile Displays are available to work within the Sydney metropolitan area and Illawarra.
Andrew has had over 40 years experience working with reptiles and was the very first reptile licensed educator in NSW. he strongly believes in educating the public about reptile awareness, management and conservation and has achieved this by providing the community with a fun and educational experience with reptiles. At the conclusion people will know what to do and what not to do around reptiles, including the teaching of much needed safety advice and first aid treatment that save lives.
Andrew’s aim is to highlight the many positive aspects of reptiles, especially snakes, which often have a poor image with the hope that people will respect snakes and understand their importance in our environment.
