NEW EPISODE EVERY 2 WEEKS!
Exploring ethical captive management of reptiles & amphibians through the lens of biological science, conservation, and human nature. The Animals at Home Network is a nature-based podcast network and is currently the home of several podcast programs: The Animals at Home Podcast hosted by Dillon Perron, Animals Everywhere hosted by Bryce Broom, Reptiles & Research Podcast hosted by Liam Sinclair and Ellie Hills, and Project Herpetoculture hosted by Phillip Lietz and Roy Arthur Blodgett. Each show on the network brings all members of the reptile community together to discuss breeding, reptile husbandry, scientific research, wildlife conservation, and more!
Rom Gonsalves is a South African reptile keeper and breeder, who is currently shifting his focus toward two concepts: 1) Keeping indigenous species and 2) Keeping outdoors. In this episode, Rom describes what it is like to grow up in one of the wildest places in the world and how that influenced his passion for nature and wildlife. Rom tells us about doing house calls for venomous snake removal including what it is like to work with wild black mambas. We close out the discussion by covering Rom’s plans to build large outdoor enclosures for his snakes (including venomous) and what he has learned from his trials with outdoor keeping thus far.
