Scott and Ryan came in the door with boxes.

2

Scott started taking animals out of the boxes

3

The first one was a from from Argentina. It was a snappy frog. It tried to get the other animals. Ryan had to move it away.

4

He also had a bearded dragon. It was bigger than the one Dr. Welle brought. This lizard that can drop its tail was next. [A blue-tongued skink.]

5

He had four baby king snakes and a milk snake. He put covers in for the king snakes to hide.

6

After the milk snake was a leopard tortoise. The leopard tortoise would stay in his shell all day.

7

The pillowcase was moving! It was the milk snake. The other pillowcase was moving! It was the glass lizard.

Scott told us about the 16 1/2-foot pet python he had.

Scott put styrofoam over all his animals to keep them warm, and he left with Ryan, and they walked out the door. [with the boxes]
