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

Hello,

I am André Weima, born in 1960 in Hooghalen, a small town in the heart of Drenthe in The Netherlands. I grew up on farms and in moorlands where my father would take my brothers and I regularly to make us aware of all the life around us and how to appreciate and respect this. Here the basis was laid for my interest in herpetology. From the age of sixteen I started to breed and nurture snakes. The way in which snakes maintain themselves in nature have always fascinated me and how these animals, especially poisonous snakes, capture their prey still speaks to my imagination. In my daily life I work as a professional photographer for several private clients, companies and media. I am able to reasonably speak and write English, better German and even better Dutch. When contacting me please do so in one of these languages. My goal is to breed and study the behaviour of several species, mostly small vipers and rattlesnakes. This mainly regards smaller species e.g. Echis (dwarf), Bitis, (Pseudo) Cerastes, Eristocophis, and the European vipers.

At this moment (30-05-2010) I keep: Bitis atropos, Bitis cornuta, Bitis arietans (South Africa), Echis occelatus, Echis pyramidum, Echis coloratus, Echis carinatus sochureki, Proatheris superciliaris, Pseudocerastes fieldi, Sistrurus miliarius streckeri, Vipera aspis hugy (Sicilië), Vipera seoanei cantabrica, Gloydius halys caraganus, Vipera latasti latasti (Portugal & Spain), Vipera latasti gaditana (Tunesia), 'Trimeresurus' venustus and Eristocophis macmahonii.
