Has anyone ever seen a Habu in any American collections? I don't recall seeing any at the big expos...

Collin, when I worked as a reptile keeper at the Atlanta Zoo in the late 70's, we had an very large Okinawa Habu on display. It was a great looking animal, and lived in a heavily planted cage in the amphibian section of the reptile building. It was kept at much cooler temperatures than most of the other snakes. I believe it was on display for over 25 years, and I am not sure if it was replaced when it finally died. I seem to also recall the Houston Zoo also having a Habu on display back in the 80's. Best Regards JohnZ
