Wow, thank you! We want to show how beautiful venomous snakes are. The best way to do it is to show them in their natural habitat. No talking in front of the camera and making the situation dramatic is needed.

Very easy to forget the long hours, the heat and even the dangers you guys undergo so we can enjoy the beautiful videos. Thank you for your effort and dedication. God bless you.

South African Vaccine Products make a mono-valent anti-venom for the Saw Scaled Viper, amongst others for Southern and other parts of Africa. There is a shortage of anti-venom in South Africa currently. There is a 5 year supply of venom, but the issue is the hyperimmunization of horses and more importantly the processing thereafter I believe!

I have always loved the pure nature experience of your work, the sounds of nature as it is,it puts you there,and honestly the human narration really dilutes the nature experience. Please consider leaving the beauty of the moment free of narration

As a Herpetologist I feel immediately compelled to grab my pillstom tongs, snake hooks and pillow cases and go collecting. At one time I've had most of the African desert species of venomous snakes and held in captivity for husbandry and propagation at the Zoo I worked at in Louisiana. Puff Adders, Egyptian Banded Cobra, Cape Cobra and the Desert Horned Viper to name a few as well as venomous snakes from around the world. Crotalus, Vipera, Trimersurus and Bothrops as well as Ophiophagus we propagated in mass numbers to trade to other Zoos. Excellent video as I haven't been able to collect these species in their native habitat. Cudos, well done. Suggestion...when you have trouble tubing a snake...get a bigger diameter tube. Remember when handling Spitting Cobras to always don your faceshield, you don't wish to be blinded do you?

Thankyou for your kind reply. The last encounter I had was with a Cape Cobra. I shared the inside of a house, out in the Karoo with it. It was in the back of a cast iron wood stove. It was removed with a long feather duster. It was not a nice experience as it kept trying to attack me. I would say that it will now have a mortal fear of feather dusters. I did not have my pipe, and bag catcher handy. I have some pictures if you would like to see them. Many thanks, David Wootton.

Let’s be real about this: when it comes to poisons and venoms, the potency may vary greatly, but any toxin can be fatal if the conditions are right!

Yes, there are extremely potent venoms and poisons, but NO carelessness should ever overrule your better judgment when it comes to yield strength!

Of course it is necessary to work carefully with any venomous snake and treat it with respect.

Good documentary. Sometimes statistics don't tell much of a story. Saying 20% fatalities occur from a bite of a snake, leaves out info such as how many people are actually bitten, from records. It might be less than 10 people per year. Though not so good, it comparatively pales when vehicle accidents are brought into the picture. I guess I find it interesting since I grew up among many venomous snakes yet was never bitten and don't know many people who were bitten. So, for the most part, I find the story of snake fatalities to not be much of a story to dwell on.
