Happy World Snake Day!
This Pueblan Milk Snake (Lampropeltis triangulum campbelli) was super excited* to help teach Animal Behaviour students some handling and restraint techniques!
*moderately annoyed 😂

Handling and Restraint of Reptiles workshop for Animal Behaviour students at a local University. The workshop covered basic behaviour, hook skills, health checking and containment methods of several species of non-venomous snake and lizard.

Indian Cobra (Naja naja) hooding up during an Encounter Session where I used to work.
Being in the UK with only one native species of venomous snake and not many zoological collections with exotic venomous species on show to the public, these Venomous Displays gave many people the opportunity to come face to face with animals they’d never seen before and will likely never see again.
I’m incredibly honoured to have been a part of all those people being able to learn about and observe these amazing animals in a safe environment.

I’ve got really into making these binary character patterns, specifically of my favourite snake species, any guesses which one this is? 🐍
