Institute of snakes in Japan
In 1968, Japan was created Scientific Research Institute of the Serpent. His task was to study the local and foreign species of snakes, snakes reproduce in captivity, studying snake venom antidotes development. At the Institute there is available to the public Serpentarium and a small museum. However, among the many buildings, I'll highlight the floor small abandoned wooden building. This site does not show to visitors of the Institute, and scientists themselves are it rarely, if ever either. It has only two rooms and everything in them - boxes, tables, shelves lined with bodies, skeletons and body parts of various reptiles, primarily, of course snakes.
Generally, it is the local museum storeroom where possible artifacts left before (or after) dissection. Dozens of jars filled with alcohol for many years maintained a hundred serpentine bodies. Sometimes content is not even seen a clear taxonomy, such as the Soviet herpetofauna. In one bank have found their final resting snakes, frogs and lizards.
But this is an exception, and in general there is a tendency to sort by type.
Where there is no cans, there are big closed pallets, as full of snake bodies. The quality of preservation is often simply magnificent and the animals seem alive.
Some reptiles allocated separate vessels, but in this case they show internal structure.
Snakes literally lying under their feet, in boxes, in the sink.
