Our collection includes a wide variety of snakes, lizards, amphibians, insects, and spiders, available for use in media productions, advertising campaigns, photo shoots, music videos, theatrical performances, educational content, and more.

Whether you’re planning a bold promotional event or need the perfect exotic animal for a close-up shot, we can help bring your vision to life with our well-cared-for and camera-ready creatures.

​

Not sure which animal best suits your project? Just send us an email with details about your concept, and we’ll be happy to recommend the most suitable species. You can also view a selection of our animals in action in the slideshow below for inspiration.

All animals are handled by experienced professionals and cared for in accordance with strict welfare standards. Let us know how we can help make your next production truly unforgettable.

Due to our recent relocation we are currently on pause until we obtain our new Animal Activities Licence. Please watch this space for updates or reach out to us directly for more information.
