Statistics demonstrate that out of all venomous animals in southern Africa, snakes are the most medically significant group. Significant in as far as envenomation and also influence upon society and the human mind. With so much misinformation, old wives tales and outdated advice, it can be difficult to determine how to react effectively during a medical emergency. Add in misguided human values and beliefs, and it can be difficult to sort the misinformation from the good advice.

During this presentation, participants learn about the 4 principles for living and working in areas where medically important snakes occur, and how to apply simple but highly effective first response to snakebite.

In this 45 minute presentation (plus 15 minute questions and answers), participants will learn:

  • How to prevent being bitten!
  • How to respond to a snake encounter.

The Essential Snake and Snakebite First Response presentation offers essential understanding of snake encounters and snakebite for:

  • Field guides.
  • Hunters.
  • Lodge staff.
  • Anti poaching teams.
  • Hikers.
  • Mountain bikers.
  • Outdoor enthusiasts.
  • Pet owners.
  • Anyone who has venomous animals in and around their home.

Presented by Jonathan Leeming, author, speaker and conservationist.
