Reptiles and Amphibians

These two groups of animals include a number that only a mother could love, animals that repulse and animals that petrify people. Most of the speices included would rather run and hide than have a close encounter with man. In the UK there are very few spieces living wild that could even harm us, but there seems to be an in built fear and distrust of all things scaley and slimey. Our reptiles and anphibians need our help and protection if they are to survive.
