FOR RELEASE SATURDAY, AUG. 15, 2015 - In this photo taken on July 30, 2015, a large African Sulcata Tortoise crawls in its inclosure in the backyard of Bob and Liz Shumaker's Westside Jacksonville, Fla., home.  What started as one pet snake for Bob and Liz Shumaker grew into a collection of over 100 snakes, lizards, turtles, tortoises and a handful of other critters in and around their Westside Jacksonville home. They have collected, bred, and taken in rescue reptiles and do public appearances and educational events in the community in an effort to educate the public as well as generate extra revenue to feed and maintain their growing collection.
