'Reptile Man' to bring amazing creatures to North Bend Block Party


July 12, 2012 · 5:08 PM

Scott Peterson, the Northwest’s own Reptile Man, presents his fascinating animals, 5 to 6 p.m. on the Block Party’s community stage.

Peterson runs the Washington Serpentarium just outside of Monroe. He has the biggest collection of reptiles in the Northwest, including the world’s ten deadliest snakes.

He’s a frequent presenter at regional schools and libraries, where he shows off interesting creatures such as desert tortoises and albino snakes.

He works to create an interest in the natural sciences and teach students about the importance of all animals in the balance of nature.
