Indigenous Reptile Awareness & Shows
At The Snake Bite Program, we promote indigenous Australian cultural awareness through education about native reptiles. Each Aboriginal tribe of Australia has their own stories about animals. We aim to share this experience with all peoples of Australia regardless of background, creed, ethnicity or social status. Also, check out our stories about Australian reptiles below!
INDIGENOUS EDUCATION AND CULTURAL AWARENESS
Aishah is of the Gurnakanai tribe in South Eastern Victoria, Australia. She is a proud indigenous Australian and aims to use her skills and knowledge with animals to teach all Australians the stories of animals across all Aboriginal cultures of Australia.
​
At the Snake Bite Program, we specialise in traveling to schools, councils, businesses, kindergartens and more. We bring native reptiles of Australia and teach children, staff, parents and everyone who wants to learn, about Aboriginal Indigenous cultural awareness through animals!

These fun, interactive and culturally informative presentations are also hands on reptile shows where you can hold the animals in an engaging display of colour, live animals that are fun and safe and learning. BOOK IN A INDIGENOUS REPTILE SHOW TODAY. CALL 0491120668
ABOUT OUR INDIGENOUS REPTILE SHOWS
Our reptile shows based on indigenous Aboriginal culture tells the stories of Australian animals to increase awareness of the plight of indigenous people through our understanding of and relationship to Australian land, animals and creation. Included in our shows is stories about:
​
Eastern Water Dragons, Bearded Dragons, Snakes and Pythons, Crocodiles, Frogs, Blue Tongue Lizards, Skinks, Turtles and more. We bring along each of these animals for people to hold as we share our indigenous stories to better appreciate native reptiles.
​
Our shows go for 1 hour and from start to finish people are fascinated to learn more as the time flies. We hope you will support our endeavours and book in a show today to learn so much that our reptiles and amphibians have to teach. All proceeds from our show go back into the Snake Bite Program which aims to increase awareness and understanding of snakes as well as development of the antivenom program.
