Splat, the Ball Python

When you say "rescue" do you go to your local animal rescue center and bring these animals home or are you in some sort of program?

I no longer take in rescues, but at one time, for years, I worked as a consultant herpetologist for the local authorities (RSPCA, Environmental Health, HM Customs, Police etc) During this time I dealt with many reptiles and learned a great deal.
These days I'm a Garter Snake 'hobbyist'.
