## Resource

In this episode, we’re talking all about white reptiles, including the differences between albino and leucistic animals and why those terms aren’t interchangeable. We also shift into a more serious but important conversation about having a fire escape plan when you keep reptiles. We share how we’ve thought through emergency planning with animals in mind, what’s realistic in a high-stress situation, and steps keepers can take to be more prepared.
