The collection includes dozens of several live species, such as snakes, lizards, chinchillas; as well as taxidermy.
==History==
The museum started as a classroom, which was taught by Ron Head. In 1989, Hugh Codding donated the entire Codding Museum inventory to Head. When the collection outgrew the classroom, the Codding family purchased a new bus garage, which freed up the old one on the school campus to be turned into a 9000 square foot museum.〔(Director admits to personal use of wildlife museum accounts | abc7news.com )〕 It was Head's dream to help hone high school students in career, leadership, and management skills. "I saw what kids could do and how a museum could motivate kids," Head said.〔
