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

Hi all,

I'm Alex, I'm 25 and currently studying a degree in Zoo Biology. I keep a small collection of snakes and have been obsessed for years!! I don't currently keep any hots but it is something I would like to do one day - in the mean time I'm simply looking to learn Smile In the UK we need to get licenses to keep venomous reptiles, with the exception of most (but not all) opistoglyphs. I am looking into some of these species to get a handle on which might be good to work with in order to gain experience.

I look forward to meeting/chatting with you all!

Thanks.

Hi Tom,

I'm studying at Nottingham Trent and so far, yes I am definitely enjoying it. I've just completed my first year - it felt like a big risk going back to school in my mid twenties but I am definitely glad that I have done it. It isn't perhaps as strongly reptile based as I might like, but the opportunities are there to specialise and you can generally choose the species you wish to study for assignments etc.

I notice your info says you're 18 - are you looking to study at university yourself?

Yep, I managed to get a place to study Biology at Oxford next year...grades permitting. Glad to hear you're enjoying it!
