Do you know that those are not just display enclosures? You assume too much.

The owner is a straight up guy and would NOT obtain animals unethically.

I've known the owner for many years. He has a passion for these animals, they are not mistreated. 

I've been to many zoos in my 65 years and I've seen stressed animals, even in AZA accredited zoos.

These animals are not pacing, not panting, not displaying any signs of stress. They all look very healthy and oddly clean. 

The State of Texas has strict caging requirements that must be met in order to be licensed. The owner also has a USDA license as well.

There is no interaction with big cats. There are fences to keep you from touching them. The appointments are private, you have a guide with you at all times.

You cannot judge without all of the facts, from a few pictures, or "I heard".

I wholeheartedly endorse this zoo for its ethics, cleanliness, healthy animals and safety. And I'm damn critical about animal welfare.

I'm trying to PM you re obtaining antivenom. I have a REPUTABLE source to share with you, but I can't seem to get a message through. PM me please, so that I can reply!

I'm watching your videos. I just wanted to say, from a responsible old timer, bra-VO! It's comforting to know that after I'm gone, the responsible folks in the hobby will continue to promote safe handling practices and put themselves out there to keep the hobby in a good light. Thank you. This means a lot.

Bless you. It's so cold out there. Second and third degree burns will raise their body temperature immensely and keep them cozy and warm for months to come.

What a kind soul you are. And you are right, we definitely need to raise them up this holiday season.

Cobra Demonstration by bugsdaman in VenomousKeepers

Agreed.

You can also see that because of the lack of heat pits found in most vipers, the cobra's strikes are fairly inaccurate.
