In summer 2017, Raija & her mother, Kim, took on a savannah monitor (Varanus exanthematicus) called Archie. Having been fed a strict diet of chicken gizzards by his previous home, his body struggled to maintain itself and ultimately led to an early death. Archie passed at 3 years old, whereas healthy adults can live between 15 – 20 years in captivity.

Archie’s Angels, Inc. is dedicated to educate and reinforce proper herpetological husbandry and animal welfare within our community. We use scientific case studies and explanations to reiterate why this knowledge is essential. Every animal that comes into our care is guaranteed a veterinary exam & continued supportive care guided by our doctor. 

We want to ensure every animal has a medical record to send with them to their new home. Doing this will allow us to catch potential illness before it is too late, and help us maintain top-of-the-line care for each animal like they are our very own.
