Here you can see zookeeper Maddie handling a prairie rattlesnake (Crotalus viridis). She'll explain what the backs of some of the smaller exhibits in the herpetarium look like and then she'll take out the snake to clean up the poop in his enclosure. #scalesandtails #closedbutstillcaring #bringingthezootoyou | Cameron Park Zoo | Facebook
