Handling

mdterp Jun 18, 2008 01:37 PM

After reading the August issue of Reptiles I have become interested in venemous snakes, but I have a question. How does one learn the proper techniques for handling venemous snakes and other things such as: bagging, tubing, milking, etc.? Are there classes you can take?

Wouldn't you need to milk them for antivenom?
