Argh!! It gets me so mad, videos like this just encourage inexperienced people to try and be something their not. I do not class myself as professional but am experienced, yet you would not find me crawling round our woodlands, tailing snakes! I have a lot of respect for herps and would like nothing more than to see them in their natural habitat but i don't believe messing with them is the best answer. You Tube has a lot to answer for, i can already see the headlines now ... 'Man bitten by adder'. This will then only fuel the unnecessary criticism of reptiles, purely because of a few idiotic people. Evil or Very Mad

Ha ha OK rant over
