We need to find someone with either a pot of cash and an interest in garter snakes, or someone who can direct areas of study at a university. Whilst this sort of research would be groundbreaking, I don't see a commercial payback from it, so it would need to be academic research for the sake of research.
Another research project to add to the list of projects to fund when I win the lottery.

I have a whole load of wildlife research projects I'd love to fund. The top of the list is still my suspicion about possum saliva (Really, I think there is some serious potential to find new antibacterial agents there).
