I'm based in the UK, but my viper research focuses on Asian vipers, particularly the taxonomy of pitvipers. ]]> 2021-07-16 15:53:51 UTC https://padlet.com/vsgeditor/emdfjvqfuhdmd2jx/wish/1652802064 https://padlet.com/vsgeditor/emdfjvqfuhdmd2jx/wish/1652840828 Member

Much of my field work has been conducted in Bangladesh where little is known about wildlife assemblages in general, but especially for vipers. Our organization, the Creative Conservation Alliance, is providing data and bringing awareness to local communities about their maligned neighbors. ]]> 2021-07-16 16:42:06 UTC https://padlet.com/vsgeditor/emdfjvqfuhdmd2jx/wish/1652840828 https://padlet.com/vsgeditor/emdfjvqfuhdmd2jx/wish/1652929584 Bangor University, UK

My research focuses primarily on the evolution of snake venoms and snake taxonomy globally, as well as ecology and conservation. I look forward to working with other viper specialists towards the conservation of these wonderful and intriguing snakes.]]> 2021-07-16 19:00:50 UTC https://padlet.com/vsgeditor/emdfjvqfuhdmd2jx/wish/1652929584 https://padlet.com/vsgeditor/emdfjvqfuhdmd2jx/wish/1654641317 2021-07-19 11:06:45 UTC https://padlet.com/vsgeditor/emdfjvqfuhdmd2jx/wish/1654641317 jsd_zoo https://padlet.com/vsgeditor/emdfjvqfuhdmd2jx/wish/1655023876 Jyotirmoy Shankar Deb

My primary focus is to involve young people in the field of viper conservation. The knowledge on vipers and the myths about them contradict each other in many cases. To identify the risks and find out the protective measures is my area of interest.  I am also working on developing a database on the illegal trade as well as killing of vipers.]]> 2021-07-19 18:39:23 UTC https://padlet.com/vsgeditor/emdfjvqfuhdmd2jx/wish/1655023876 oleksandrzinenko https://padlet.com/vsgeditor/emdfjvqfuhdmd2jx/wish/1659137817 Kharkiv University, Ukraine
I am an object oriented scientist and everything connected with vipers fascinates me. I've start in my student years with population biology of Nikolsky viper, now devote most of my time to various topics from phylogeography and taxonomy to landscape ecology and toxinology. As a constant and significant part of my activity I spend much time promoting vipers and trying to change public view on snakes as human enemies.]]> 2021-07-23 06:03:10 UTC https://padlet.com/vsgeditor/emdfjvqfuhdmd2jx/wish/1659137817
