This is not meant as a flame at all, but I'm wondering if Mr. Killian's lax handling practices had anything at all to do with this. I've seen pictures and videos of him freehandling large kings (among other hots) numerous times, as well as on TV (Animal Cops Miami). Unfortunately, this sort of thing is almost an inevitability when you handle venomous reptiles in that manner.
That said, I don't know what happened, and for all I know, he was doing everything correctly. I mean absolutely NO disrespect to Mr. Killian with this post, as I'm well aware of his contributions to reptile conservation in Florida, and wish him a speedy recovery. ----- Abhishek Prasad
