See they tame down like any other snake and can be handled. There is no danger in handling a venomoid......................

With what you say on forums about agreeing with not handling a venomoid and treating them like hots then seeing that makes me think you will say one thing and do another.

Oh a gaboon is a viper lol

I seen it with my own eyes a gabby out and being handled. Kids did not touch it but they were in range to be struck
if a gaboon viper was within reach of people attending the show, that's not very smart. I agree with you. I had a gabby at a hamburg show probably a year or two ago. I might have used a short hook and my hand to get her out of the container and then in the display cage, but i wouldn't be holding it any longer than that. If it was me being too close to people while I did that, then you are correct Gary. I made a mistake that could have resulted in someone getting their hand bitten by a large fangs. As far as vemon goes, that wouldn't be the case, but I understand what you are saying.

I can agree with you and respect every opinion you have Gary.
