Herpetophobia

Herpetophobia (From the Greek Herpetό meaning "Reptile") is a fear of reptiles and is a branch of Zoophobia. Some herpetophobes may simply be afraid of dangerous reptiles such as alligators, crocodiles, dragons, or snakes, while others may also be afraid of more docile ones like tortoises, lizards, and chameleons. Some may even be triggered through viewing the likeness of a reptile, such as an image of one.
