Meet the Rachel's Reptiles Family

When the word "pet" comes to mind, most of us think of dogs and cats; they are the most popular types of household pets. Not for animal lover Rachel, who is a manager at Nashville Adventure Park. She does have a furry pet or two, but most of her brood are part of the reptile family. This large group of brothers and sisters are Rachel's pride and joy, each with a unique story to tell.
