This is a prime example of one of the many reasons I have SO MUCH respect for Emily and Ed!! They're reptile professionals, have YEARS of experience, literally own a zoo, and they're still continuing their education! They both are such great role models for how everyone should look at animal keeping! You'll never know everything, so never stop learning!

A small request, some people (like myself) really rely on the subtitles to be able to understand your videos, ESPECIALLY when masks are being worn. The subtitles auto generate at the bottom of the screen, so they cover up any notes that you add there. It would be really helpful to your deaf viewers and anyone who relys on the subtitles if you could put the notes somewhere else on the screen whenever possible. Either at the top or to the side of a shot would be great. Thank you for including subtitles in your videos, they are very helpful.

There's a HUGE difference between gloves like what Wildlife Aid over in Britain uses for angry foxes and a snake with reach. Even with gloves on one misjudgement and that snake is withing striking distance of your entire body, face and all. Best bet handling "hots" will always be keeping distance.

Great video. I’d love to do a workshop like this. My only experience of handling a wild snake was when I offered to grab a large carpet python that had made its way into a bathroom in a regional hospital here in Australia. He was curled around the toilet pedestal and the person in the room had been using the toilet for a couple of days and hadn’t noticed the snake. All I could do was grab the snake behind the head and try to unwind it. He didn’t like that at all. I took him outside into some parkland and let him go. Even all these years later I can’t think how I plucked up the courage to do it. I don’t think I could manage to do it today.

Oh gosh, feeling that rattlesnake tail while its rattling musta felt so cool. What a great experience! And the shot down the tube of the face was awesome

I know you guys have protection and stuff but I would still be kind of nervous around the venomous snake but you guys are just really confident

I just bought the book "Snakes For Kids". So excited to receive it and share it with others.

After watching I immediately went and bought the children’s book. I will update how it is, but my nephews love snakes and I can’t wait to have some reliable information on a wide range of species!

It’s incredible that you teach us everything, but you’re teachable as well, and continue to pass helpful info along, that’s so important for conservation, and to see resources out there for noob handlers !!! Cool!! I had no idea

Seeing you both touching the rattler was a good show of scale. They are huge.
