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

Excellent photo-essay, Mr. Vaucher. Unfortunately for me, my French is not so good; but this is an impressive list of specimens. The inclusion of the map is appreciated. I especially enjoyed the images of the Vipera ammodytes. The Natrix natrix look very similar to our(North American)Thamnophis. Thank you for posting this. Sincerely, Jon Davidson .

A very nice Photo-story of a very nice herping spot of Europe.
A lot of very nice reptiles and Amphibians too, in very good shots!
On the pictures I have seen, that the weather was bad, but for this weather conditions you have found a lot! But, I missed one....Did you don´t find some V.aspis? The are very common in Trentino. Normaly the are out also in bad weather conditions. Vipers has mostly more tollerance about the weather than some of the others.
Unfortunly I can´t read the text, then my Franch is more bad than only bad.

Peter, the wind was too strong and the temperature too cold. The only day where I could see aspis was in Mt Pasubio, and nothign... really nothing !
We found anyway a lot of species because we have a fine knowledge of the field and a lot of experience
Thank's for all positive comments. cheers
