Exotic and small animal rescue, rehabilitation, and education serving Southern Idaho
Southern Idaho Reptile Rescue was founded in 2019 by three long-time, passionate reptile enthusiasts with a vision to make a difference for reptiles in the state of Idaho. As private keepers, we noticed that there already existed numerous organizations that helped rescue many species of animals, from dogs and cats to birds and livestock, but there were few such facilities or refuges for unwanted or rescued reptiles.
Reptile owners had limited outlets to relinquish ownership if needed nor was there an abundance of resources available to acquire accurate, reliable information on the care and husbandry of reptiles as pets. In addition, native and non-native species were being destroyed by state facilities and other animal rescue agencies solely due to lack of knowledge regarding care and housing of these amazing creatures – native and exotic. In response, Southern Idaho Reptile Rescue was founded.
Today, SIRR consists of a dedicated team of volunteers and a varied network of shelters and rescues in multiple states across the Midwest. Based in Twin Falls, Idaho, SIRR works closely with Idaho Fish and Game, U.S. Fish and Wildlife, Idaho Department of Agriculture, and Idaho law enforcement officers to care for and house unwanted or seized reptiles from across the state.
