The jelly is about 15k if you can find it and you need some serious permits and plenty other special filters and sea water chlorinators and I can't even remember what else.

So I decided on the next best exotic animal that I really love.

The only thing that I'm VERY nervous about is the fact that I've never touched a snake in my life let alone a poisonous one but like all things in life you have to start somewhere.


There is a program on Discovery World called "I was Bitten"..When i saw what less than 1ml of poison from a snake bite does to a human,im 100% sure i missed no glory from staying fuckin far away from any snake.The weird thing is...its always the Snake Wranglers who end up with the worst injuries lol.I love myself toooo much :)

Eish buddy, talk about jumping into the deep end. Why don't you get a small python or boa like the Rainbow Boas and later when you have more experience you can go for the hectic stuff. I think I caught my first venomous snake at 12... it was a Rinkhals...

I sold them all. I had 4x Puff adders, 3x Boa constrictors, 2x Yellow anacondas, 2x Albino Burmese pythons, 1x Horned adder, 1x Cape cobra and that is not counting the hundreds of babies I sold and the smaller snakes like corn snakes and rat snakes. Also had many other snakes that I caught and released the next day, so not counting them because that would be thousands.

This weeks Venom Hunter is in RSA searching for a gaboon. 2 tri angles on the cheek.
Finds Rinkhals, Puffadder, forest cobra on top of doing some really neat vet-research etc. I always record these guys and he is definately one of the best - Donald Schultz(Safrican of course)
If no more of episode 4 this week i think next week Tues will have a rerun at around 1800 i think.
