For over seven years the South Carolina Reptile & Exotic Animal Show thrived at the Jamil Temple in
Columbia, South Carolina, before moving to other cities and venues. In November 2006, under new Repticon
management, the show made a triumphant return to its original location. We were thrilled with the amount of
positive feedback we received about the show being back where it belonged. Again we came back in June &
November 2007 for more successful shows. We are pleased to be returning in 2008. Check out the photos
below of past shows. Come experience one of the hottest venomous and non-venomous shows in the
Southeast! |
There's always something
fun for kids at Repticon,
from kid-friendly live-
animal encounters to
reptile themed crafts and
puppet shows. Be sure
to bring your little herper
by the Kids' zone to see
what's new at the
Repticon Kids' zone in
Columbia.! |
