Intensive research on and management of poisonous snakes center on Japan, home of the Habu, and Guam, where Brown Treesnakes have killed off many native species. This book draws on that research to present comprehensive guidelines for snake management, offering a wealth of information on their biology and behavior previously unavailable in English. Studies of the Habu and the Brown Treesnake have set standards for management and defined current knowledge regarding the epidemiology of envenomation and threats to biodiversity caused by snake predators. This book establishes the state of the art for snake management worldwide and a much-needed foundation for future research.
