Crocodiles are deemed the most feared animal on the planet due to their powerful jaws, aggressiveness and size.
But do you know, they are the 'ultimate survivors'! They have outlived the dinosaur and many other any species! Here are some 10 interesting facts about the Siamese Crocodiles.
In Cambodia, Angkor Wildlife and Aquarium will help work towards safe and sustainable wild crocodile populations. Contact us if you want to know more : https://bit.ly/3mrYVkZ
• Siamese Crocodiles are considered “Critically Endangered” on the Red List of threatened species by IUCN. There are thought to be around 250 left in the wild.
• They were thought to be an extinct species until they were rediscovered living isolated in the Cardamom Mountain range in Cambodia.
• There are around 1 million “Siamese” crocodiles in captivity but many are actually hybrid species and the pure species are still very rare
• They are a medium species of Crocodile rarely exceeding 3.5 metres long.
• In the wild they are extremely secretive and only feed on small animals such as fish, lizards, snakes and some small mammals.
• They lay between 11-27 eggs in a nest that they build from sand, soil and leaves.
• Female crocodiles defend their nests fiercely until the baby crocodiles emerge.
• Female crocodiles are known to gently crack open the eggs to help babies hatch and also gently carry them to the water where they will protect them from any predators.
• The baby crocodiles emit a warning cry to summon the mother if they are in danger, this call is extremely cute!
• Crocodiles evolved on earth more than 200 million years ago, many species face threats of extinction from human interference. In Cambodia, AWA will help work towards safe and sustainable wild crocodile populations.

The Green Iguana Iguana iguana.
We are very pleased to be able to re-home this guy who keeps amazing us with his relaxed personality and has a particular good relationship with his keepers. He is often seen climbing onto his keepers in order to get to food or a good scratch!!
Did you know
▶Green Iguana can grow to 2 metres in length and weigh 8kg, making it one of the largest of all Iguanas.
▶To defend themselves they will first whip an intruder with their very long tail, if that doesn’t work, they will bite causing very nasty injuries.
▶Male Iguanas are very territorial and will fight other males.
▶To attract a female the males will use a flap under the neck to signal their interest.
▶They live almost exclusively in the tree tops.
▶The diet in the wild mainly consists of leaves and some fruit.
▶Here at AAK he is provided with natural leaf foliage and supplemented with a mix of fruit and vegetables.
▶In the wild this species can be found from southern Brazil, Paraguay and as far north as Mexico.
▶They have been introduced into some of the Caribbean Islands, where they can outcompete and hybridise with other Iguana species causing some considerable conservation problems.
▶This is an important lesson as we must keep such species from entering the natural biodiversity of Cambodia.

They are non-venomous.
They are great moms!
They can go for long periods of time without eating!
What are they? They are Burmese Python🐍. This snake is much more than a terrifying creature, they are excellent companions and beautiful creatures.
Let’s check out their fun facts!
• The Burmese Python is one of the largest snakes in Southeast Asia growing up to 7.5 metres and weighing up to 90kg, with a huge range including all of Cambodia in a variety of habitats.
• Like all pythons it is a powerful constrictor, meaning it kills its prey by wrapping around and tightly squeezing it until breathing and blood flow are stopped before swallowing large prey items whole.
• The Burmese Python does not possess any venom.
• This species is considered vulnerable by IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature). The main threat being it is harvested in large numbers for meat and its skin for use in the leather industry.
• Like all pythons it lays eggs (12-35 on average but over 100 has been recorded) which it wraps around to protect them and maintain a steady incubation temperature until the babies’ hatch (60-90 days) In this time she will not leave the eggs to eat.
• Did you know Burmese Pythons can go without food for large periods of time in which their metabolism is slowed so much that some internal organs begin to shrink to a tiny size. This is to cover hot and dry periods where food may not be available. When feeding resumes some organs such as the heart, liver and small intestines can regenerate from 40-100% in mass. This is the largest post feeding regeneration by any snake species.
• The Burmese Python can also live for up to 25-28 years.
At Angkor Wildlife and Aquarium, we currently have 6 individuals, our largest female weighing 35kg.
All of our Burmese Pythons were rescued from a dilapidated animal collection that was closing down.

How to Quarantine New Fish🐠
Two weeks ago, we talked about why new fish need quarantine. This week, we will build on the last post and introduce how we quarantine new fish before adding them to the aquarium.
What do you expect for your self-isolation after a long trip? Stay in the 5-star hotel? Self-monitoring by checking body temperature every day? Watch TV. Eat and sleep.
New fish quarantine is similar to what we expect for human self-isolation, but the process can be complex. The process can vary based on their sizes, species, and surroundings.
In brief, they will stay in isolation for up to 21 days. Over the quarantine period, they will get some sleep in the hideout, get familiar with their new surroundings and eat more.
Since they can’t do self-monitoring, the keepers will monitor their behaviour, check their skin, and treat them with medication when they are sick.
In this post, we summarize the basic quarantine steps. If you want to know more about the quarantine process, talk to us : https://bit.ly/3exMJMn
Basic quarantine steps are:
1. Equip a quarantine tank for new fish with the above tools or supplies. The tank size varies depending on fish size and the number of fish.
2. Clean the tank and fill water into the tank.
3. Set up a separated filtration, heater, and thermometer. The temperature should match with the main tank.
4. Set up decorations for shelter. The hideout allows new fish to feel more comfortable with new surroundings.
5. Check the quarantine tank environment with test kits. Ensure the pH is also similar or the same as the main tank.
6. Observe for 21 days. Monitor the health and vitality of the quarantine fish.
7. If you see any signs of bacterial infection, separate them, and treat them with medicines.
8. If your fish look healthy and are feeding after 21 days, new fish can be added to your main tank.

Like human, quarantine measure for new fish is mandatory!
Fish are vulnerable to all kinds of diseases. New fish get many checkpoints before being added to the new aquarium.
No matter how diligent the fishery operators are, fish can be infected during their long journey to their new home.
If a sick fish is added to the new aquarium without quarantine, it can spread the disease to other fish.
On our next post, we will explain more on the process of fish quarantine. Stay tuned.

Do you know what today is ?
Today is National Building & Code Staff Appreciation Day!!
Our beautiful projects all over the world would not be possible without the incredible work of our highly trained construction staff. And for that we are incredibly grateful!
They execute unthinkable tasks daily and most of the time away from their loved ones. They are executing building and code standards all while turning the ‘unthinkable project’ into a beautiful, unique aquarium experience. Without proper work guidance, inspection and approval process, the gigantic exhibits can not only endanger our staff but could even danger future guests.
The engineering and building staff do not always get the gratitude they deserve. That’s why we should show our gratitude to them today

What is the behind-the-scenes secrets of aquariums?
Nobody is cleaning the oceans, lakes or rivers. But they are keeping a natural balance. Why?
Mother nature creates the balance naturally our oceans and keeps all creatures clean and healthy.
Unlike the bodies of water in nature the aquarium is relatively small in amount of water.
No matter how big or small your luxury aquarium is, its system is different than habitat in nature.
In order to keep mimic Mother Nature we rely our team of experts and our custom-built Life Support Systems.
Performing life support maintenance can be a complicated process, and it involves lots of time, effort and human resources.
Our custom-built Life Support Systems support unsightly algae, fish disease, loss of livestock, murky aquarium water and leakage and more.

A new luxury aquarium redefines the shopping experience of the new mall, Starlight 68, in Chongqing, China
To survive the digital age, retailers and malls are reimagining the customer experience.
We helped our client build one of the biggest cylinder aquariums in China to differentiate from the competition and to bring a steady stream of new customers into the mall.
This exhibit brings fun and joy to shoppers and allows them to enjoy their close encounters with ocean creatures. Shoppers are willing to spend more time in the mall, which can help improve the profitability of the retail shop.
The longer shoppers spend time in the shopping mall, the more they spend on shopping and entertainment within the mall.
The aquarium turns a boring shopping experience into an exciting adventure by extending enjoyment for the whole family. Without the shoppers even realizing it, our projects increase revenue to the mall and joy to the shoppers.

How exciting would it be to meet a sea star or hold a baby ray in your hand?
One of the most exciting areas of a public aquarium is undoubtably the visitor’s interaction area we call a Touch Tank. The tank offers habitats to a group of sea creatures surrounded by shallow edges and viewing windows.
Children and visitors can get their hands wet at the touch tank, and discover the unique texture and movement of various sea creatures, such as sea stars, mussels, snails, sea urchins and sometimes rays!
The interactive exhibit brings joy and fun to anyone young at heart – the chance to have a hands-on encounter with little sea creatures!
Are you planning for building your touch tank for public or luxury commercial aquarium?
