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

Thank you Trevor. Always love habitat shots. In all my trips thru Georgia, I've never seen a live adamanteus, maybe one of these days.

Thank you Scotty and Rainer,
Around here adamanteus is kinda hard to find, but it makes it even better when you do find one.

just noticed the 2008 Heterodon platirhinos photo, must of clicked the wrong photo tongue

thanks Johann,
I love the various colors of horridus, Ive found them brown to yellow with a few that were hot pink and purple, beautiful rattlers that do very well in captivity.

Excellent photo-essay, Mr. McGill. Great to see photographs of live, wild specimens of some of my favourite snakes( horridus, adamanteus and Agkistrodon). Looking forward to seeing more. Thanks for posting this. Sincerely, Jon Davidson .

Hi Trevor,
I can imagine what do you feel! I can´t wait for the spring evrery year. It´s every year the same - I count the days for the first trip to find some ,,wild-snakes´´ since some years, I visited our smal Vipera a. aspis population here in Germany. It´s always nice to see, that the are still around and in good No. and shape. It brings a good feeling for the coming years.
Fingercrossing for the nixt trip for you!

BTW: Very nice shots!

I have not visited the USA for a trip. So I can´t imagine what a feeling it is, to heare a rattler, before you have spot them ;-) It must be great!?
