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 everyone, my name is Karen. I live in Los Angeles, California and have been interested in reptiles for about 3 decades now. I have friends who keep venomous snakes native to California and after herping with them numerous times and seeing Crotalus Atrox, C. Cerastes, C. Helleri, and C. Lutosus, up close (well, within reason..hehe) I am fascinated and want to learn more, which brings me here. I was informed through a friend that this forum has the most information and knowledgeable people around and certainly look forward to learning from all of you. Someday I hope to share with you my experiences as well. (I have a friend who has agreed to mentor me.)

Currently I keep a small collection of animals such as Thamnophis species, Malaclemys Terrapin, Scaphiophryne Gottlebei, and Theraphosa Apophysis.

Thanks,
Karen

Welcome, Karen, there are definitely some knowledgeable people on here. I just moved out east from CA last year, but spent my 25 years up north a bit. I've spent quite a bit of time herping in socal though over the past few years.

Hello Everyone. Thanks for the warm greetings. I'm certainly overwhelmed by this forum - fantastic reads and excellent photos (amazing set-ups). I am definitely learning a lot of valuable information here which will help immensely when I go field herping.

Chaim, yes - I've had my share of spiders over the past decade and am glad to hear your sister is now keeping them as well! I wish I had a cool younger brother!

Warren, looking forward to our next trip in Nevada! Our last trip to Palm Springs - finding that C. Cerastes eating a kangaroo rat was amazing. I'm glad I was able to get footage, although heavily pixelated.
