I’m petrified of snakes but find your content compelling
I used to help a friend catch tiger snakes to send to the serum labs. I was permanently terrified. Good job dude.
Good work Stuart! Living legend
Interesting we don't keep them semi enclosed so they can't be MILKED as their venom replenishes.
Great stuff boys! And good that the Brownies were well behaved also 👍👍
Amazing work brother🙏🙏 Love form India
Great work! It certainly looks dangerous particularly when you pick up the snakes by the tail with bare hands. Could a catcher possibly wear protective gloves and clothing just in case he is bitten?
Nope. Can't feel the snake properly or maneuver hands quickly enough with gloves that are capable of stopping fangs. It would be a bit like trying to play the piano wearing welding gloves. There are gloves out there, but mostly used for when putting your hand/arm into an enclosure past a snake, but not actually picking it up.
@@Ro-dent Would be a great invention to have a sensitive glove that could repel a bite!
@@oxideclayart4753 it would, but I'm not sure there's anything in existence as yet. A lot of the gloves on the market use the same materials used in bullet proof vests. There was a guy here on YT that did a video testing gloves getting his many different snakes to bite them, and some of the gloves failed. So its not worth the risk.
Interesting. Do you take a preventative dose of the anti-venom? Have you ever been bitten?
There is no preventative anti venom. It is specific to the type of snake. Injecting the wrong anti venom can be deadly in itself.
Why does the snake need a microchip if it is native to our country? Serious question. ?
Just like with a dog or cat, so if it gets out and recaptured they know where it came from. So they also know what venom came from what snake when making the anti venom.
@@Ro-dent isn’t it proven that majority or reptiles after being microchipped don’t live full lives?
They die most of them. Is every animal microchipped at the reptile park or Australia zoo. No
@@Ro-dent please don’t compare a reptile to a cat or dog!
@@Ro-dent dude your an idiot! Just re reading what you’ve said! You have rocks between your ears fool! “So they also know what venom came from what snake” you are a fool! What does that have to do with a microchip!
