No doubt that snake was a venomoid

I didn't read the threads below but I'm sure some of the experienced folks will attest that this snake was most likely a venomoid - not by looks but by the careless handling that took place. Definitely sent a wrong message to many prospective venomous keepers. I like Jack and have always respected him but the person helping him looked like he had never handled a venomous snake before (it almost looked like Bob Clark but I'm sure it was someone else).

Just my.02.

>>Did anyone catch the show? It was pretty funny with Dave running behind the scenery brandishing his flute like a weapon. Jack Hanna was yelling at the handler and the hyper cobra was all over the place!
