Each type of reptile can only have their own inherent diseases, as their various types come to terrariums of zoos from tropical and subtropical regions, as well as from private collections. Reptiles are found in various zoos and are prone to a variety of characteristic diseases associated with metabolic disorders, lack of vitamins and minerals. Infectious and parasitic diseases develop in violation of the rules of quarantine of new snakes. Infectious and parasitic diseases contribute to the development of the syndrome of disadaptation, reduce the life expectancy of snakes in captivity, reduce reproductive potential. For the proper organization of the treatment of snakes, in general, it is necessary to understand the root causes of certain diseases, knowledge of which will help to quickly recover.
