I would like to share a link to a wonderful article that holds special meaning for me on two counts. Firstly because I got to spend two weeks out in India last July working with Rom on the “One Million Snake-bite” study (doing venom extractions) so I can appreciate what the great man really is like and secondly through my friendship with the Venom Angel, a woman who I got to know early last year and who has become a valued personal friend. I had the privilege to spend time with her in Wyoming late last year and to give her a personal copy of “Snakes of India” signed for her by Rom himself! The Venom Angel is a multi talented woman who counts amongst her friends some of the most recognizable names within the international reptile community.... little wonder when you consider she is a Professional Herpetologist specializing in venomous species. Here, she turns her hand to one of her other talents, writing about these fascinating people. Rom’s story is just the beginning of a series that I am sure you will enjoy!
