NORTH RIVERSIDE, Ill. (WLS) -- Lizards, snakes and other reptilian creatures are preparing to take over North Riverside Park Mall. Crosstown Exotics' Reptile Road Show returns Saturday, July 12.

Jeanne Heller from North Riverside Park Mall and co-founders of Crosstown Exotics - Colin Langenderfer and Mike Levins - visited ABC 7 Chicago to introduce some of the creatures featured in this year's show.
