We are very excited to be adding new presentation speakers to the lineup along with Jeff Mohr’s Reptilian Encounters. We are proud to announce
Ken Panse and his Exotic Reptile Adventures.
Ken has been handling exotic animals for over 20 years. As the founder of Exotic Reptile Adventures, Ken feels it’s important to combine the excitement of presenting living reptiles and giant bugs along with a “hands on” educational experience. His interactive show gives attendees an opportunity to ask questions and even touch some of the animals in his collection.
During the 1990’s, Ken and his wife Stef owned Panse’s Pet Planet in Douglasville, GA. A need to provide a conservation theme show arose as many of the local teachers requested Ken to come visit their classrooms and schools. Realizing the importance for kids, and all people to understand their natural, native surroundings. Ken developed his show utilizing QCC (Quality Core Curriculum) objectives and outcomes. Then he added a variety of reptile ambassadors to his menagerie to draw from the world’s unique habitats, geography and ecosystems.
Ken has recently launched a new show featuring indigenous reptiles of the Southeast called Reptile Wrangler in which he displays a 4-foot alligator and large snapping turtle amongst other native snakes, lizards and amphibians.
Ken has appeared in many newspaper articles, Southeastern reptile exhibitions, and local TV and is currently publishing his first book based on his reptile experiences. Ken also volunteers his time to community groups such as the Boy Scouts of America, Georgia Aquarium, Thrivent Financial, Habitat for Humanity, Emory University, Remember the Rainbows, and Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta. His son Zack is a Volunteer with Zoo Atlanta.

Atlanta Reptile and Exotic Animal Show Jan 27 & 28
If anyone wants some free passes for this show and is willing to help with flyers, PLEASE contact me and come get some or meet me somewhere this weekend. I've already passed out about 10,000. Mark has handed out some too...but there's still a lot to go out and the more different areas we can cover with them the better to make this the greatest show possible.
