From FB: “For those of y’all impacted by the storm and are in/around DFW, The Serpentarium on 75 is taking in reptiles for boarding if you are without power. I have been without consistent power since Sunday night so all of my exotics, including my boy Fafnir, have been evacuated to The Serpentarium. Message them on Instagram or Facebook to set up a time to drop off your animals. Phones are down, so messaging is the only way to get in contact with them. I hope you are all staying warm and safe.”
This information was current as of 17 Feb at 1:52 PM CST. Please let anyone with herps you might know in the DFW area know.
They do have a generator and cameras that are monitored 24/7, so if you do take your animals there, they will be safe.

hey there are a lot of posts about how bad things are getting but none of them have resources for how to help. if you reblogged any of those I’d really really appreciate it if you reblogged this too.
This blog is mostly so I can vent my feelings and share my interests. Other than that, I am nothing special.
If you don't like Left Wing political thought and philosophy, all things related to horror, the supernatural, the grotesque, guns or the strange, then get the fuck out. I just warned you.
