Do you know of any zoos that keep wagler's pit vipers and fea's vipers?

[viperkeeper]

Riverbank Zoo (SC) Has Fea's...don't know if they are on exhibit. They're very sensitive to interaction.

Many have Wag's :

Ft. Worth, TX

Catoctin Zoo & Wildlife Park (MD)

Off the top of my head

I'm curious....That Eastern Brown Snake (Common Brown, as it's also known as) is native to Australia....Australia don't allow the importation of their reptiles due to them being endangered. - How did you manage to get this snake?

[viperkeeper]

1) I can usually obtain (legally) most species I want to keep.

2) These are also found in PNG/Indonesia

hey al i have a suggestion you should try making more unpacking vids cause it is very cool to watch

[viperkeeper]

I have to import to do that...I'm not importing because of the economy

LOL "too evil to die" describes my immortal, evil children's python so well! I ended up with the beast when the store I worked at went out of business. He was too bitey to sell! We even sold the vicious Macklot's! I took him home and still have him 8 yrs later and he still pings his nasty little nose off the glass whenever I walk by.

wwwwoooot!!! I love the Hagens Viper (hope I spelled it right) I had to laugh when you went Rrroaaaar! Beautiful as ever Viperkeeper. I'm thrilled to find vids that I haven't seen yet. :D

[MStreppelhoff]

I always must laugh when the video went into slow motion. i really like your videos ! Im not familiar with snakes but i had some birdeaters and scorpions. Nice animals you havet here. Keep up the interesting work ! ;)

best part was when it went in slow mo

[edaj84]

well in Aus we don't call kings browns mulga's, we call mulga's mulgas and king browns king browns.

[edaj84]

since mulgas are native to Australia I doubt you can get them.

[edaj84]

Aus has the eastern brown too (I didn't know they were present in indonesia and PNG)

I am starting to believe that the short "Sniffs" of Rhino Vipers is territorial...

To my research, the Sniffling action is infact a hiss...saying "This is my house, Get out" - Head bobbing is still unusual...I have came up with this theaory due to everytime your in the snake room, he comes to the glass...So Mr. Sniffles was a very territorial little one if this is the case.

The other Rhino vipers Sniff also...which backs up my theory...

Any further comments Al?
