Tula Exotarium Details

Tula Exotarium was founded in 1987. Presently it houses the world's largest collection of snakes. Exotarium has acquired a world-wide repute and recognition due to breeding rarest species of animals, many of which are still little-studied. Each year we breed many species that are already threatened with extinction in their natural surroundings, thus trying to preserve them. Exotarium stuff contributes a lot to studying reptiles and amphibians all over the world, but, first of all, in the countries of South-Eastern Asia.Exotarium is one of Tula's most visited museums.
