March 20 at 7 pm ET: Mark O'Shea

There are few herpers everyone in the community knows, but Mark O'Shea is one of those people.

Mark is an amazingly well traveled herper, having participated in over 40 expedition and film trips, to over 30 countries, on six continents.

Well-known to reptile and non-reptile people alike for his show, "Mark O'Shea's Big Adventures," as well as many other documentaries, Mark is now focusing on cutting edge field work.

Mark concentrated his attentions on his herpetological and snakebite interests in PNG, working with toxinologist and fellow herpetologist David Williams, but now under the auspices of a Fellowship from the Australian Venom Research Unit, at the University of Melbourne, who had continued the work started by Oxford.

He also began working in Timor-Leste, conducting an herpetological survey of the young country with Hinrich Kaiser and his team from Victor Valley College, California.

Mark will share some of his experiences from Timor-Leste this evening as well as answer questions about his full life. Having kept snakes since the age of 8, he has a ton of experiences to share with us all.
