Respect for the Reptile. Help for the Homeowner.

Help our snake rescue protect reptiles in Shreveport, Louisiana

Welcome to Steve's Snaketuary®, where our mission is to Eliminate Fear through Education and Bring Peace through Rescue.

A huge percentage of people are afraid of snakes, and we hope to change that through education. We want to replace fear with respect. Fear causes thousands of snakes to be killed each year, and that has a negative impact on the wildlife here in Louisiana.

The purpose of our snake sanctuary is to provide:

Snake rescue for unwanted pet snakes or reptiles
Snake removal for snakes that have found their way into gardens, homes, or businesses
Snake education that shows the community the importance of snakes

Snake ID for help identifying snakes found in Louisiana

Above all, we hope to teach the public to respect snakes and their unique role in our world.

Snakes are here for a reason

Another objective of our snake sanctuary is to educate the public about how important snakes are to our world. Snakes are predators that keep other animal populations in check, such as:

  • Rodents
  • Frogs
  • Lizards
Some snakes even prey on smaller snakes, keeping those populations at healthy levels. Overall, snakes are afraid of humans and would rather avoid us than harm us. Because of their docile nature, some snakes even make great pets.

To learn more about snakes, schedule one of our snake education programs in the Shreveport & Bossier City, LA area. You'll have the chance to meet some scaly friends, and they might just change your mind about snakes.

Safety at the sanctuary

The head of our snake sanctuary, Steve, is not only a Master Herpetologist & National Wildlife Control Operator, but also a Firefighter, Advanced EMT, CPR/BLS Instructor, and EMS Instructor, so our education programs include information about snake bites and first aid treatment. You can even learn how snake venom is used in medication!
If a snake bite were to occur on a snake removal call, our team is trained to handle the situation.

At Steve's Snaketuary®, we have a passion for snakes. Discover that passion for yourself through our snake rescue and education program in Shreveport or Bossier City, LA.
