In the past, the only good snake was a dead one according to our society. This attitude is fortunately changing.  We can and should provide the same level of care and expertise to this diverse group of amazing animals as we do to any other species. The threats they face are those of other wildlife: predation by dogs and cats, entrapment and loss of habitat – all consequences of the activity of humans.

With over 100 colour pages and more than 150 images, this manual provides carers with the information required to rehabilitate the reptiles and frogs most commonly presented for care.
