Anton,

Great photos. You have some nice looking snakes there. Do you get called to remove them from houses/public areas?

If you have any pictures with a gabon viper, ringhal etc. I would love to see them also.

Alright - here's my Stupid Question of the day.
How did those guys holding the mambas in their bare hands put the snakes down again - without getting bitten?

I know there's the old trick of putting the snake inside a bag by lowering its body first (into the bag).
But with a mamba involved, you've still got the risk of it striking your hand - as you release its head.
So how did they do that???

thanks,
Upepo
 
Anton, you make a great point, all creatures have a chance to make a living. By going out of our way to kill or rid a creature off the planet says something about ourselves.
 
I also agree with Anton s point of view, I have encountered snakes on country roads a few times, and stopped to let them cross in peace.

With me I just handed him back to the Tanzanian that handed him to me. There was a miscommunication, I asked if his venom sacks had been removed and was assured that they were. Later, while I was holding the snake, I was told that nothing had been done to the venom sacks, he was just a nice nyoka that didn't bite.
 
"he was just a nice nyoka that didn't bite. "

Hahahahahahahahahaha!!!
nice nyoka ...nice nyoka ... down boy :)

[nice snake .... nicke snake].
