Desert Reptile Rescue
was
started in 2005 to assist the hundreds of
desert reptiles that are looking for homes
across the southern deserts of Nevada. The
rescue center is a family operations and run
by Lakota Spoolman. Lakota has been a
Veterinarian Health Tech for 31 years
specializing in emergency medicine.
Great news!
Desert
Rescue is going totally green by 2011.
We will be growing all our own feeds (live
feeders and vegetables, and fruits via a
massive hydroponics project).
Turtle of the Week!
Stoner
-
- Stoner is an adult Red-Ear
Slider that has been
chosen to be the turtle of the
week. We named her Stoner
because when we clean out the
pond, she puts her feet down
very cautiously when walking as
if she was actually stoned. It
is very funny to watch. She has
no problem when the pond is
full, but when cleaning it is
just too funny. So Stoner is our
turtle of the week. We have many
other Red-ear Sliders available,
both sexes and various ages.
PLEASE DO NOT ABANDON YOUR REPTILE IN THE
PARK OR DUMP INTO THE DUMPSTER!

The
rescue center handles all type of reptiles
including those with medical and temperament
issues. When an animal or reptile comes in,
they are quarantined for 2 weeks before
being put up for adoption. It is not unusual
for the center to have a waiting list for
these animals.
Bad, Bad, Leroy
Brown!
Leroy
is one good looking Iguana! He was brought
to the center by his owners who did not have
enough time for him. He was getting a little
out of hand with his temperament due to lack
of attention. With male Iguana's, if you
don't keep up the attention to them, they
will revert back to their male tendencies of
being aggressive. Great news... Leroy was
adopted in mid-August! We'll miss you
Leroy!
