Tiny Tails brought big excitement to the Peppermill Inn.

On Thursday, January 16, lizards, snakes and lemurs arrived at the Shepparton hotel.

The event proved a big hit with kids and adults alike, with many vying for the chance to hold a snake.

News photographer Rechelle Zammit was there to capture all the school-holiday fun.
