Description
This two-day certification workshop will provide all the essential skills needed to safely work with venomous reptiles, and is suitable for both experienced professionals and folks who have never held a snake in their life. Our curriculum is designed to maximize experience hours with the animals and consolidate unnecessary and expensive tiered training into a single essential course. Our team of wildlife biologists will guide you through classroom topics in first aid, venom toxinology, and standards of care; to practical experience learning tools and hands-off restraints with venomous ambassador animals. By the time you are finished with this workshop, you'll be able to:
Interpret general patterns of snake behavior
Identify characteristics of safe, responsible venomous husbandry
Describe the types and effects of various snake venoms
