LaughingDove 23 Jan 2015 Do they allow all visitors to handle certain snakes? Or is this an exception?
snowleopard 23 Jan 2015 Where is the photo of you handling a green mamba? Also, did the row of snake terrariums have a lot of glare on them?

Although this species is venomous, the venom is not life-threatening and this individual was very comfortable with being handled. snowleopard said: Where is the photo of you handling a green mamba?

And the terrariums all had some degree of glare on them. In Africa it's pretty hard to avoid the sun.
