Is it a 50's or 60's pic of someone who is a member of this forum?? I decided that 70's was too modern for the hairstyle and socks! :lol:

This guy is obviously a trend setter - these pictures are from the mid 60's.

Yes. Actually these photographs are from the Museum of Victoria web site.

Tell me when you would like a couple more clues.

Peter,- what do you mean the old days, tailing is IMO the only way to catch a venomous snake,(with a hoop bag). I hope your not one off those people that use those horrible cruel tong things. They should be band, as IMO if some one has to use them to pick up a snake they should not be in the indistry. Im hopeing like mad that you dont use them.

Brian Barnett????

Yeah pinning is too much of a risk for the snake and yourself.... It makes the animal stress out in a big way too. It prolongs the capture and makes the snake feel 'trapped'.

I only ever do it when I absolutely need to, which is only twice with my captives so far. I just use a restraining tube if I need to do something to the snake!!

Brian Barnett????
