I am working on developing a software program that teaches snake anatomy and goes more in depth than other resources available. (see my post at [url]www.albinoburmese.com/forums/ [/URL] and also on virtual snake dissection) I am looking for a large specimen which we can conduct many of our dissections on so that many of the usually minute structures will be more visible and easily photographed.
I know there's the occasional person who allows their giant snake to become aggressive or otherwise unsuitable for purchase as a pet. Usually these animals are euthanized and disposed of by whatever means.
I'd love it if people would be on the lookout for a burmese python who is no longer wanted and let me know here if you find one. I can buy the snake and humanely euthanized it, or pay for shipping of a frozen specimen.
This endeavor will help decrease the number of dissection specimens required world wide for education of herpetologists and veterinarians and provide the world with a reliable surgical and anatomical reference that can evolve with time.
Thanks for all your help in fulfilling our goals and saving snakes!
