Default The U-Plex revisited....

YouTube - U-plex Revisited


Since some were not convinced that the U-Plex was a useful tool to have around I video taped several specimens being placed in tubs while there cares were re-furbished, including a 7 foot (2M) Black Mamba. I've seemed to live to tell about it!
