| Lizards, Spiny Mice and snakes, yes – plus Tortoises and the Boss Monitor. The Water Dragon and Degus stare back at the visitor undaunted by all the attention.

Keepers believe that 'George' is one of the oldest tortoises in Britain at somewhere between 50 and 60 years old! Photography: Tony Quinn 2004.
