Harvey Tweats and Tom Whitehurst return to the podcast to update us on their brand new, outdoor herp breeding facility. Tom and Harvey explain the layout of their facility including information about their outdoor enclosures, greenhouses, and pond as well as the species they work with. We discuss conservation and the importance of re-introducing animals to the UK landscape including reptiles, amphibians, and large mammals. We wrap up the conversation by discussing the intricacies of practicing good bio-security in an outdoor facility. SHOW NOTES: https://www.animalsathomenetwork.com/101-celtic-ra/
