What Are Vivarium Rooms? The term "vivarium" comes from the Latin words for "place for" and "living things." In short,. That can include anything from a heated glass box for a reptile in a kid's room, to the dolphinarium at Sea World. For research purposes, vivarium rooms are also known as animal research facilities, and their purpose is to house animals and/or plants under conditions simulating a natural environment.
