Giant Crocodile God – Egypt – “The Lost World of Reptiles” Exhibit
Natureworks Custom Giant Crocodile God sits on a throne as you enter the Australian Reptile Park’s Reptile Exhibit. The Exhibit depicts elements from Ancient Egypt, Athens, and Rome more often than not in a humorous, tongue-in-cheek manner. The result is a fun and highly educational adventure.
Just inside the croc-mouth, an animated Egyptian mummy urges visitors to the Lost World of Reptiles. Upon entering the spacious recreation of Kom Ombo, awe-struck visitors are confronted by the five-metre-tall crocodile god Sobek, guardian of the pharaohs and ambassador of the reptile kingdom. From his golden throne, with feet soaking in a pool full of live crocodiles, Sobek thunders a reptilian-righteous oration, punctuated with billowing puffs of smoke and bursts of thunder and lightning.
As well as creating sculptures for The Lost World of Reptiles, Natureworks has created many animal habitats and sculptures for this much-loved nature attraction over the years. We even created the highly memorable giant frilled lizard entry statement. Read about our work for the Australian Reptile Park.
