This week we followed Christina Zdenek of the Death Adder Project as she studied the elusive (and deadly) Common Death Adder (Acanthophis antarcticus). • If I had to choose a venomous snake to be around for an extended period of time, I think I'd go with this little snake. It's very docile, and, despite the fact that it's so deadly, it's not inclined to bite unless disturbed. • Christina wants to thank all the residents on the island for making this work possible. Also, Shawn - thanks so much for letting us use your vehicle, residents, and local knowledge throughout the filming. Thanks to all those we interviewed - those that made the cut and those that didn't. You were all so welcoming! • Thanks also to: • QPWS; rangers on Magnetic Island • My supervisor, Dr Bryan Fry • volunteers on the project • Death Adder Project sponsor: Reptile Awareness Displays of Australia (www.RADOA.com.au) • residents of Magnetic Island for their support • A big thanks to all current and future patrons who are helping fund this science communication outreach via Patreon: http://bit.ly/2Sfmkph • If anyone loves this Project so much that they would like to either donate funds or time/expertise, please get in touch with Christina. She could use all the help she can get!
