Reptiles are an important part of our ecosystem playing major roles and in cases are keystone species. They are often objectified as dangerous and vicious creatures often putting a lot of fear in people.
Ross explains the importance of these lovely creatures and why they aren’t a big threat to us and why we shouldn’t be scared if we come into contact, as well as dropping some very interesting stories and facts along the way.
