What We Do
|
It is our goal to provide the opportunity to learn about, view and even touch some of the most beautiful and exotic animals on our planet. Unique and mysterious, reptiles, amphibians and other exotic animals raise both hairs and curiosities. It is through this interest we strive to entertain and educate people about the importance of biodiversity, and the conservation and sustainable use of all forms of life.

Reptile Propagation and Research Facilities
Brad's WORLD REPTILES is one of the largest reptile breeding and research facilities in the Pacific Northwest. We maintain large self-sustaining breeding groups of dozens of species of snakes, lizards, amphibians and arthropods. Our company has been on the cutting edge of reptile propagation since 1980, specializing in a wide variety of both popular and exotic species.
Wildlife Conservation Refuge
Brad's WORLD REPTILES is located on a 10 acre ranch near Corvallis, Oregon. This property holds the facilities and also serves as a refuge for native plants and wildlife. Dozens of native plant species have been reintroduced to replace the hay fields that have been in production for nearly a century. It is now home to black-tailed deer, beavers, foxes, bobcats, mallards, wood ducks, owls, hawks, kestrel falcons, red-legged frogs, long-toed salamanders, western pond turtles and many other native species.
