If you have lost a reptile within the KNOX CITY COUNCIL (Knoxfield, Ferntree Gully, Scoresby)
Please call or sms Reptiles Victoria asap with a description, photos and home location for your reptile.
Spring has sprung, which means our reptile companions are feeling adventurous and can sometimes find a new way out of their enclosures and our arms.
Nothing to be ashamed of, that’s what the community is here for, to help each other out.
Thank you to the Member of Public who recently handed in a reptile to their local vet.

Happy World Lizard Day from Reptiles Victoria! 🦎🎉

As the weather begins to warm up, our amazing Victorian reptiles will soon be emerging from their winter hiding spots and becoming more active. ☀️🌿

Please remember to slow down, keep a safe distance, and be responsible around wildlife. Lizards may be crossing roads, basking in the sun, or moving through gardens and bushland as they become active again.

If you come across an injured or deceased reptile, please get in touch with Reptiles Victoria. Your report could help an animal in need — and deceased reptiles can also contribute to important research through our necropsy project. 🦎🔬

Let’s give our scaly friends the space and respect they deserve this season. 💚

Happy World Lizard Day! 🦎🌏

🐍 Happy World Snake Day! 🐍

Today we celebrate the incredible snakes that call Australia home. These often misunderstood animals play a vital role in maintaining healthy ecosystems by controlling pest populations and supporting our native biodiversity.

This World Snake Day, take a moment to appreciate these remarkable reptiles from a safe distance and help replace fear with understanding through education and respect.

If you believe in protecting Victoria’s native reptiles, please consider supporting Reptiles Victoria. As a volunteer-run not-for-profit organisation, your support helps us continue our work in reptile rescue, education, advocacy, and conservation across the state.

Together, we can create a safer future for both people and wildlife. 💚🐍
