Abstract：The city zoo is part of the urban park system. It is closely related to the urban environment
and the civic life. As a leisure and entertainment venue for citizens, it also shoulders the
important responsibility of conveying ecological protection and rare animal conservation.
Regardless of the traditional fear of cold-blooded animals, or the popular alternative
hunting psychology, the exhibition of amphibians and reptiles is attracting more and more
tourists attention, which not only increases the income of the zoo, but also makes the zoo
better. Play the educational function, eliminate peoples misunderstandings, and re-examine
the beauty of animals.
