The Brookfield Zoo

I took a trip to Chicago in 2005 to see their zoological institutions. The Brookfield Zoo was a highlight because I had never visited it prior to this trip. Unfortunately, at the time I visited, the reptile house was thinning out its collection to prepare for renovations and it was not as large as I had hoped for. Below are photographs of some of the species in the reptile house. Contact me at devin@amphibiancare.com before using any of these photographs.
