Herp Photo of the Day: Memories

By Cindy Steinle · October 30, 2025 6:51 pm

There was a lot of waffling to decide who today was, it was the NRBE2009 gallery when I saw my face at the first time I met a komodo that I realized that it had to be Krakatoa!

If you notice, there was always a field trip, be it a convention or expo. Florida often had several depending on how I planned it and who I was traveling with. St. Augustine Alligator Farm was ALWAYS a favorite. We ALWAYS had the VIP experience. I do not zoo like you zoo. For me all zoos ARE petting zoos. My friends are the keepers. I know their dedication and love.

I also remember the stories of Sharon Stone and her husband. I wasn't sure where these photos werem I knew I hadn't taken them and I was worried they all may have been lost. Thankfully, as I was clearing I found them. If you are on my Facebook, get ready to see a lot of photos hit. OH EM GEE!

But oh Krakatoa. I had to write his obituary several years later. He died due to West Nile Virus, when that was pretty rampant. He was truly a special lizard who also would seek out the human touch. I am so honored to have had him in my life.
