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

I met up with frank manda for the weekend to do some field herping and hear's what we came across....I also went out one night alone and was able to see a nice gravid C.tigris feasting on a kangaroo mouse.

That's an interesting behavior you saw! I really appreciate this kind of report, it shows the Snake in situ, and his interaction with others. And tigris are rarely seen...The pyrrhus looks like a Macrovipera deserti. Stunning!
Thaank you for sharing!

Regards

Fred

Thank you guys for all the kind words!!
Frédéric, it was very interesting watching the tigris eat in situ. It was like i was seeing the snake on a more personal level if that makes sense.

Yes Nate,

For me it makes sense. I breed some snakes at home, i have some really good sensations and interactions on a daily basis, but when i am on the field, it is really something else...and when i can see some behaviour like the one you saw, it is a great time.

Keep us aware about your field trips!

Thanks Very Happy

Hello Wolfgang, it was nice meeting you! that's great that you were able to find a few more scutes and another atrox. That speckled was quite the beauty! i felt so bad finding it write in front of you, i know that feeling of watching the person find what you were looking for write in front of you and its terrible!!....please keep me updated on what your study yields!
best regards
