Rizzo’s Reptile Discovery is the premier wildlife education provider in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and New York. We offer a vast array of reptiles, amphibians, select mammals, insects and arachnids. Our programs are educational, entertaining, and interactive. We provide a friendly, humorous, and non-threatening environment where children learn how animals live and interact. Ultimately, children will leave the program excited and wanting to learn more about the natural world.
Our passion and caring style creates a dynamic and energetic program that has had children and adults coming back for more. Let us show you in person what we can offer. You won’t be disappointed.
We recently celebrated our son's 10th birthday and we surprised him with Rizzo's reptile discovery show. He was so fascinated with Dominick and the animals that he brought. Everybody to this day still talk how entertaining Dominick was and how they had a great time. I highly recommend Rizzo's wildlife discovery!!
I have hired Rizzo Reptile Discovery several times for an annual Client Appreciation Family Party. Dominic consistently delivers an engaging show, catering to our audience of both children and adults. He is the highlight of our party! And I can honestly say that our attendance is always at its maximu the years that he has been our entertainment. He has a wide and varied variety of animals and letting the children get involved in his show is alwaysa treat. I would recommend him for any event you are having
Recently, I supervised a summer nature camp where Rizzo's Reptiles was an every week show (8 weeks) The kids' ages ranged from 7-13. He captured the entire audience and maintained their attention for the full hour program. Although Dominick used professional animal handling, he allowed everyone a pet, as long as it was safe the reptile was willing. You could also observe the love and respect Dominick had for each animal. He brought different animals to each show, making it more interesting to the counselors who watched every week. The campers were excited by his arrival and entertained with his humor. I would absolutely hire him back for any type of function that calls for a live animal show and some fun.
