S5 E13: An Impactful Partnership That’s Helping Save Snakebite Victims


Listen Later

The Bronx Zoo’s Herpetology Team cares for a number of venomous snakes at the zoo’s World of Reptiles. As professionals, they know what they’re doing. Just in case, though, the zoo team keeps antivenom on site and a thorough plan in place to address any potential emergencies. Fortunately, it hasn’t been needed any time in recent memory.

Reporting: Dan Rosen

Guests: Kevin Torregrosa, Dr. Joshua Z. Silverberg
