INDIANAPOLIS — The Indianapolis Zoo is getting set to open a new extreme snake exhibit this spring, but before they do, zoo officials are inviting the public to help name its three featured snake species.
The new exhibit, "Size, Speed & Venom: Extreme Snakes," is set to debut May 25. The exhibit will feature 20 species, including a black mamba, reticulated python and a green mamba.
Zoo officials in a press release said they are looking for names with wild creativity. The zoo's eastern diamondback rattlesnake is named Neil Diamond.
