Welcome to Sams Species Reptile Rescue and Sanctuary .
How it all began....
After alot of deliberation and research my daughter Sam decided she wanted a snake for christmas!!!! Well the day arrived and i brought home a beautiful hatchling hognose girlie which we named Helga. I still couldnt imagine that i had allowed something i believed to be cold, wet, slimey and slithery into the house, but as usual i thought wrongley and became fascinated and decided to rehome a corn snake for me. The interest grew not only with snakes but in all reptiles, so 7 years ago with my families support i started a reptile rescue and sanctuary which i named after my daughter. It has now totalled 400+ reptiles, insects and amphibians which we care for within our home. These have come in from all over the country and once in our care they stay for life. We do not sell on, nor do we intentionally breed from them. After a lengthy process of health checks, rehabillitation and only when the animals are ready, we use them for educational talks and displays particularly with special needs children and adults. We are not charity registered yet and are non-funded. We rely purely on money given from talks etc or public donations to fund the rescue.
