Chiricahua Desert Museum, Rodeo, NM

Rodeo, NM is a very small village, but a little outside is the Chiricahua Desert Museum and Gift Shop. The private museum is nicely set up with everything related to reptiles. Books, stamps, snake venom treatments and even an entire exhibition case full of (mostly empty) wine and beer bottles, all related to snakes in one way or another. In a separate room are two dozen terrariums with a collection of live reptiles. For a donation of $3 it was all mine for half an hour.

Some photos can be seen here.
