Snake Awareness Talk at VGHS

On Wednesday the 14th of February I delivered two back-to-back snake awareness talks at Victoria Girls High School (VGHS) in Grahamstown. The talks, which touched on snake anatomy, behaviour and ecology, were very well received by both classes. Although many of the girls were frightened by the sight of a live snake, most of them took the opportunity to interact with the live snakes on display. Thanks goes to VGHS, and more specifically Nadia Czeredrecki-Schmidt for organising the presentations and thanks also goes to Dr Shelley Edwards, my MSc supervisor, for co-presenting with me on the day.
