Can you tell if a snake is venomous by its colour? What is the real chance of
being bitten by a snake? Can you really die in 30 seconds? Many of us have an
instinctive fear of snakes and other reptiles. Over the last 200 years, we have
built up a strong negative image of them, especially snakes. It is an image that
has been reinforced by many fallacies and misconceptions. Living with Snakes and
Other Reptiles provides a layperson's account of why these creatures behave the
way they do and what makes people get into trouble. The book sheds new light on
snakes, lizards and crocodiles, helps you to identify them and dispels some
common myths and fallacies. In revealing the fascinating world of reptiles, the
book provides the reader with the knowledge to better cope with them at home and
in the workplace.
