Reptile Rescue / Surrender Information

We accept non-native , non-restricted reptiles (Native Desert Tortoises must go directly to AZ Game & Fish).
There is a Surrender Fee for all animals brought to us
Due to the extremely high volume of surrenders, there is a $35 Surrender Fee for Red-Eared Sliders (you must attest that is is a legally purchased pet and not wild caught/found) , and a $40 -100 Surrender Fee for Sulcata Tortoises, depending on size. Due to very limited space, we may not be able to take in Pond Turtles and Sulcata Tortoises immediately.

All Surrenders must be brought to us. In certain cases that require us to pick up, there will be a Transportation Fee. (Fee depends upon mileage, minimum $20)
