Dear Venomland Members and Friends, Venomland is a little more than 6 years old now and by far the biggest Hot Snake community on the Planet! We want to thank all of you who made Venomland the leading Board. We are also very thankful to our Moderators and Admins for years of hard work. Now, it is time to move on. I have been thinking how to proceed and what to do with our beloved board as we reach a size, that we need to make drastic changes to secure the future of our community. As of now, Venomland is hosted by a free (well mostly free) hosting service. That was good for the first years but now we need to find a new way to run our forum. I have spend hundreds of Dollars over the years to keep Venomland up and running, and i have done so with pleasure. Now, we need your help! We need to come up with several thousand dollars for our Venomland 2.0 project, which i frankly cant pay for any longer by myself. So Venomland is asking his Friends and Members for the first time for their financial Support. Please help to keep Venomland alive, and let us move on to a new, better Portal in the Future! Every Dollar is helping us a great deal. I know, its hard times for everyone, but please spare a few Dollar for our community. If you have only 10 Dollars to spare, we are grateful, if it is more, it would be awesome. We are planning to develop a very new Venomland, with real community functions, a forum like you are already loving it and a real (online) Hot Snake Magazin. Also, there will be download areas for scientific papers, Wallpapers and more. Again folks, we can only do that if you all help. Please send me a Private Message if you want to keep Venomland alive, i will provide you with the details on how to donate Money. For now, we can accept money from creditcards via skrill (please google it, its a free service - account-details will be forwarded to you) and paypal. All the best, and for a (hopefully) nice future of our Board. Mario

I'm joining this forum in the hope of learning about a few things. First off, I have been talking with a few people here and figured it would be useful to set up a venom centre that can produce antivenom for snake bite in Bali and around the Indonesian archipelago, given that the existing polyvalent serum, produced by one company in Java, may have limited use elsewhere. I am assuming that many people, especially the rural poor, are bitten and die from snakebite here (caused by cobras, kraits, pitvipers, seasnakes, etc and all the Eastern papuan species including death adders). but these bites and deaths largely unrecorded, along with the snake species involved. I would be interested in hearing from anyone who has set up such a centre from nothing; steps involved, procedures, facilities needed, costs, challenges etc etc. Can anyone help me? thanks!

Hey Ron,

at first "welcome". Try to contact Mark O`Shea, he did a lot to improve the snake bite situation of the rural dwellers on Papua, maybe he can help you and get you in contact with useful peope. Good luck!

Best regards

Frank
