Description

Episode 2 welcomes Dr Cormac Price, Postdoctoral Researcher at University of KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. We discuss the ecology of urban snakes in Durban - a city of almost 4 million people - and Cormac's research working alongside Nick Evans (KZN Amphibian & Reptile Conservation). Hear tales of what it's like working with Black Mambas (one of the most venomous snakes in Africa), the Mozambique spitting cobra & a variety of other reptiles. Tune in for discussions on Cormac's early life in Ireland, his love of reptiles, urban adapting wildlife, and how humans & animals can find ways to co-exist.
