Just found this topic very intresting read. I have a bit of an interest in venomous snakes and was just wondering what you would be doing in your DWA course?
How long is the course? and what would we learn? would the people on the course be handling the snakes?

That's my suggestion for the course:

First Day: we will learn how to free handle a gaboon viper (everyone will have a chance pull him out of the viv, handle for hour an hour and stick it back in the viv)
Second Day: swimming with salt water crocs (make sure you take your swimming gear and towel)
Third Day: in the morning we will learn how to play flute, and in the afternoon, we will do the flute trick with a king cobra, and of course kiss the cobra's forehead
Fourth Day: we will learn how to run in zigzag from a black mamba. Don't panick, you don't need to be faster than the snake, as long as there is someone who is slower than you in the group
Fifth and last day: we will get locked up with a komodo dragon for 5 hours, just to see that his bad reputation is very unfair. If we have time we will learn how to brush their teeth so that they stop dribbling

We will get the certificates and a hatchling taipan in the post a week later

Sorry, I was bored at 4 am. It was genuinely for a laugh, but I'd be very interested in a venomous course as well
