My mate found a baby hermans tortoise in his garden which turned out to be from next door. Roath park in Cardiff apparently has plenty of released terrapins and possibly other turtles. Whilst living in Somerset I saw a tadpole that was not native, it was far too big! Didnt manage to catch the bugger though. Possibly a bull frog tad?

Interesting topic.

Skem is not the centre of the universe. The round puckered bit on the map of skem is an arsehole so that if the world needs an enema God knows where to stick the tube. Harry

i'd imagine garter snakes would be alright there... i don't know what else snake-wise could breed there... garter snakes though.. i see no reason why.
