Description
Olly Wilson is a reptile keeper and zookeeper out of the UK. In this episode, we discuss a couple of the interesting species Olly keeps including a species of horned mountain dragon (Acanthosaura lepidogaster) and Dune gecko (Stenodactylus spp.). We also discuss an interesting way to re-engage with the animals you currently keep by running at-home studies. Olly also tells us about his fruit beetle colonies (Pachnoda marginata peregrina & Chlorocala africana oertzeni) and we discuss the prospect of turning feeder insects into proper display enclosures.
