CHARITIES WE LOVE
Southern California Herpetology Association and Rescue is supported by the Central Valley Reptile Expo.
Supporting many of our local dog, cat, small animal, and reptile rescues and adoption agencies is our top priority. What makes this effort special is that we have managed to find new homes for thousands of animals that people could no longer care for and we are very proud of that! If you are interested in making a great new addition to your tails or scales family, the Central Valley Reptile and Pet Expos are the place for you!
The United States Association of Reptile Keepers (USARK) is a science, education and conservation-based advocacy for the responsible private ownership of, and trade in reptiles and amphibians. We endorse caging standards, sound husbandry, escape prevention protocols, and an integrated approach to vital conservation issues. Help support the United States Association of Reptile Keepers by making a donation today.
ABOUT US
Central Valley Reptile Expo was born out of a love of reptiles and family pets, in the Central Valley of California. Our first show in 2017 was a huge success, and since then, has grown to become one of the best reptile shows, educational workshops and animal adoption events in California. We look forward to hosting you for many years to come!
