Better late than never lol

Whilst it is, in concept only, a very admirable thing to do, I agree wholly with Chris and Marie etc that this is not really the best possible thing to do to raise funds in a country where young, impressionable children do actually have access to such snakes.

The pictures are rather amazing to see yes I agree - not many people can ever say they have had a mamba drink from thier hands but then not many people would deem it a responsible manner in which to interact with a venemous snake.

(and for the record, I didn't flame the other guy for free handling his snakes!!)

Apparently there is some confusion here

1) My actions do not affect your hobby. This is an educational institution, not a private collection.
2) I work for a salary, just like everyone else. I am the curator of this park.
3) Its none of your business, but 90% of the money goes to charity. We may end up making just enough to maintain our current collection
4) No one said you can try this, but what do you expect will happane when 40 snakes start treating you like furniture?
5) The branch is in the cupboard to stop the mambas breaking my dishes. They use it to climb to their refuge.
6) Kids here have parents that know the dangers of these animals, so the odds of a kid quickly bringing one home is unlikely.


Thanks for all the positive remarks, the negative ones...well....

This is one crazy thread!
