We have listed the various other animals which you can also see at eagle heights. We have always had reptiles in the centre and recently constructed a brand new reptile house to house our rescued animals. Almost all of our reptiles on display are rescued either as escapees, unwanted pets or victims of cruelty cases. We do not breed most of them but instead provide them with a good home to live out their lives.

There are also a number of mammals on display at the centre, including asian short clawed otters (awaiting a new enclosure), meerkats and new additions for 2005 are our pygmy goats, ferrets and english giant rabbits.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You may also see various dogs during your visit to the centre, these are working dogs and kept as pets by members of staff, we do not, however, allow any other dogs into the centre.

The list is not comprehensive and we may have more (or less) on display at any time.
