Educating vets if Fiji about snakes

We don't have specialist reptile vets where I am, but we do have a very willing and helpful general vet practice (https://www.facebook.com/vetessentials.fiji/).

Recently, coupled with some great advice from members of this forum, they have been able to help me treat one of my snakes, but as most of them had never even seen, let alone handled, a live snake before, we thought we'd give them some handling experience.

They were very excited to do this, staying late after their weekend practice closed. All three vets and six veterinary assistants were there, and a lot of selfies taken. Unfortunately, Rifraf, the first one out of the bag, disgraced himself by biting one of the vets, but thankfully vets aren't much phased by small bites, and no damage was done (except to Rifraf's reputation, but, to be honest, he's a bit of an idiot anyway).

Mazikeen, the much more ladylike matriarch of my group, behaved perfectly, and was the hit of the session.

Here are a few pics. I think we have some converts!
