Thank you so much for the shout-out Kenan! It’s awesome to see you feature some venomous snakes, as you know the vast majority of snake videos tend to oversensationalize some of these animals, and it’s great to see more down to earth videos like this. As you know your welcome here any time you want to meet some more Australian Elapids
@@KampKenan would love to have you here! We’ve actually just moved to a new place, 21 acres of bush land adjoining the Grampians national park, your place as been a big inspiration for what we want to do with this place
Carl is a living piece of reptile history. What a boss. 12 some bites, and still working with snakes?! That's love right there, and passion. Most people would be out with 1. His whole demeanor is great through the video, very positive and encouraging. Having confidence at a time where someone else (Kenan)might need it.
I live in Queensland Australia and I’ve seen a large one of these large coastal Taipans in the wild. Possibly the coolest experience of my life. Bite incidents are actually very rare as they tend to avoid human contact if possible.
RIFLE babe so true, handling snakes is like handling large animals like cattle, it’s about reading the animal and being aware of your soroundings in my opinion
woah!! what a beautiful snake!! i had heard of taipans before but i had no idea how deadly they can be. your videos are so great and educational!! it really great to have people like you making these videos especially when there are so many less responsible people making reptiles seem like easy fun pets and never address any of the risks with these animals. seriously, thank you so much for what you do!!
I got a chance to visit the reptile discovery center when I visited Florida. One of the coolest and most unique experiences, I’ve ever gotten the chance to do. His respect and Knowledge of the animals is simply beautiful. People like him, are who hobbyist should shrive to be like. I highly recommend a visit, if you get the chance.
The Inland Taipan isn't known for aggression. It doesn't need to be, since it's venom is so potent and fast acting. It also only lives in very remote areas.
Awesome video . Thanks ! My brave former SEAL Hubby and I were visiting a great collection and I was being shown the very large cobra. He decided that he had enough and was backing away and realized he had come up against a small fence. His choice was over the fence or stay and over the fence were some good sized crocs! He was ready to go with them rather than the cobra . It ended well with all happy in the end.
I really enjoyed this! I like to say a snake when a snake strikes it is throwing its head at you, this giant. That is NOT first resort behavior. We just gotta take a beat and learn to read the animals around us!
I sit on the toilet when I watch venomous snake videos. .. so I don't crap my pants. I have an irrational fear of all snakes (ophiophobia). So I try to watch these videos to lessen my fear of them (I also happen to be a cop). I live and work in the Boston area so it is unlikely that I will encounter venomous snakes at all. That being said, I'm a former Marine and I deployed to Iraq three times (from 2003 to 2007) and I was stationed in Twenty-Nine Palms CA. While I was in California, I had several encounters with Mojave Rattlesnakes. Once while I was on watch duty at night and a second time while doing mock patrols. They absolutely terrified me. When I was in Iraq we were recovering a vehicle in a small tributary off of the Euphrates River. We had to enter the water to hook up to the Bradley. When I was getting out and climbing up the bank, a decent sized all black snake was basking in the sun. It turns out it was a desert cobra. I was eye level with it (it was higher up on the bank). I ran back into the water as fast as I could to get away from it. I still get chills thinking about how close I got to it. I've honestly had nightmares about it after. I don't understand how people can comfortably work with snakes. Though, I do appreciate that this work is being done. Thanks for the great video, I'm a long time subscriber.
wyrien thanks for sharing mate, it’s important to note though that I can’t guarantee that the compression bandage (first aid we use here in Australia) is the recommended method in other parts of the world where your dealing with vipers over elapids
Kenan which aussie snakes would you love to work with? As a aussie i love and respect the 3 speices of taipans tried to photograph them at Taronga Zoo here in sydney a few years back but are to quick... Red bellies are awesome nice coloring can bite but rather slither away then bite people... Brownies are just nuts
Hey Kenan I also live i SW Florida and I have a green iguana she was a rescue from huricane irma and i was woundering if u wanted her she is pretty young. If you do reply. You are one of my biggest role models when i grow up i realy want to be a herpotolagist
even though during Kenan moving the snake back to the enclosure and me know that Kenan has already uploaded this video and is fine. I was still a little scared for him :D.
Inland Tais are certainly amazing snakes, and easily the most venomous snake on earth (although the western desert taipan hasn’t had any toxicity information published yet) However you really can’t consider the inland taipan the most dangerous, thankfully it’s natural range (being far away from people) and the fact it spends most of its time in holes underground mean it almost is never seen, most taipan bites are actually from captive animals!
As an Australian, I think that you are nuts! I live on a sugar cane farm in Inland Taipan territory and I won't walk my dogs on the farm at the moment because there have been a few taipan sightings lately.
Sandra Chapman I imagine you would have coastal taipans where you are Inland taipans live too far west to grow sugar cane and coastal tais are famous for living in cane fields Funnily enough though 99% of taipan call outs turn out to be big eastern brown snakes as taipans are so altert and fast they are usually gone before you see them
@@WickedWildlife you are probably right. I live about an hour away from the coast in fnq. I haven't seen the taipans myself (which is good because I am scared of snakes) but someone else who lives on the farm says that he has seen them.
Sandra Chapman I used to live and work in Townsville and was constantly looking for taipans Almost everyone I was called to remove was a brown snake Inland taipans are found in Queensland but your talking the very south west corner near SOuth Australia
Sandra Chapman identification is interesting but I always tell people it’s not really that important, first aid is what’s important and the hospital can identify what sort of snake bit you from the venom left on the skin of the bite sight Luckily women don’t get bitten half as often as men because your all too smart and sensible to be fooling around with snakes 😂 If you ever want a refresher on first aid I have a video on Australian snakebite first aid on my channel :)
Wow great job nerves of Steel how cool to get to handle such a venomous snake always enjoy your videos very educational have a totally awesome day peace out
There was an Eastern Taipan in the yard last week... yes, I am Australian. So I just watch where I am walking. Am I worried, not really... it isn't like it is hunting me, it is just hunting the frogs and rodents and the little marsupials. It is just about being aware that it is about. I get Common Tree Snakes regularly in my Orchid House and the occasional Black Whip Snake, which can be rather disconcerting.
@@KampKenan I grew up in an area full of Brown's, you kind of are taught about snakes from very early on, as well as about all the other "nasties" Australia has. They are there but they aren't the focus... you wouldn't be able to live here if all you did was focus on "what could kill you". I just say it makes things more interesting.
@@j.d.8075 I have "resident" brown snakes i my yard/area, Live near a state forest and next to a creek so there are plenty of rats and frogs about. Had the first one removed and next season another appeared. Its just a matter of being careful, wear shoes and long pants when out in the yard especially in the spring and when moving materials around, dont let the grass/vegetation get too long. Make sure you buy some of the "indicator" snake bandages just in case, the bandages have symbols that form particular shapes wen they are applied tight enough
Was anybody else other than me holding their breath ? Lol I was thinking he was going to fall to the floor and the both of them trying to figure how to get it back in !
Suck a beautiful animal. I may have to make a trip down there to florida to go see all of the animals there. Looks like an amazing facility. Thanks for the demonstration!
@@KampKenan it's only about a 10 hour drive Haha but I'd see some friends and family too so it may be a nice trip to take. I'd love to see a program of theirs.
From other videos and articles I have seen/read, yes, it can be hard on them. These animals are very valuable for their venom, so, everything possible is usually done to reduce emotional and physical stress. They are rotated with other snakes of their same species, to give each one enough of a break to recuperate. But there can be long term damage done to their necks over time or by accident.
I worked with a coastal taipan that was used for venom collection for ten years, and I think it had certainly affected the snakes Behavior, this one taipan unlike any of our others (10 or so at the time) would never calm down while being handled which I believe was the result of being milked almost every time it was handled However it’s necessary to save people
Kenan love your vids im from australia ang love snakes i have wanted a python but my mum dont like them i also like tortoises but due to the strick import and export laws im young and alot to learn thanks shout me out plz

That is cool!
Can’t wait to visit you sometime. That would be a dream!
@@KampKenan would love to have you here! We’ve actually just moved to a new place, 21 acres of bush land adjoining the Grampians national park, your place as been a big inspiration for what we want to do with this place
The way Carl talked you through while you were moving the snake is amazing. That man really knows his craft. What a cool calm collected guy🤘🐢🐍
He’s great. You should totally visit his place if u ever get the chance!
i support your channel on patreon
Being ready to learn means being ready to let go of ego. Both of you are such an inspiration. THANK YOU!

I absolutely love that man’s demeanor. So calm but also careful. He would be an amazing shrink lol😂
this was great to watch. it’s so nice to see people interact with these animals in a calm, respectful way - not sensationalizing the situation.
I love Carl's approach with venomous snakes. Takes his time and really feels out the snakes mood. Great job kenan and a beautiful snake.
RIFLE babe so true, handling snakes is like handling large animals like cattle, it’s about reading the animal and being aware of your soroundings in my opinion
Slow and steady wins the race...nice job Kenan!!!

Carl is so calming. I feel like he could deliver horrible news and you would feel at peace.
I could listen to Carl all day. I think he could teach anyone

Always loved to see how people deal with our Aussie Snakes 🐍. Keep up the good work Kenan and all the best for you over this month. 😃
Im aussie
Which state are you from? You own any reptiles?
Thank you so much Rizi🤠

belizeguy I used to point out to people who where more scared of snakes then crocs that there’s no antivenin for a missing hand 😂
@@WickedWildlife I am very glad that reason prevailed and no hands were lost !
This was a brilliant video! Great job doing things safely!
Thanks, it really was a great thrill and honor to have this experience
Such a beautiful video. I think it perfectly depicts. How humans should handle dangerous animals correctly. An respect them an understand them.
Agreed, thanks Jay:)
Hello Kenan I love the way Carl Handles the snakes I would love to visit carl and the all the snakes and other Awsome Animals
I never clicked on a Kamp Kenan video so fast,it was literally in my notifications..
Haha thx Jebediah!🤠
What a wonderful instructor!
I really enjoyed this! I like to say a snake when a snake strikes it is throwing its head at you, this giant. That is NOT first resort behavior. We just gotta take a beat and learn to read the animals around us!
Taipans just like King cobras are so curious and intelligent looking, that is why they are 1 of my favorite species of snakes,
Good job K. I'd be nervous 2. Its good to have a healthy respect for these dangerous animals!
the second time they opened the enclosure the snake is like "did you remember the food this time?"
That was unbelievable!! Kenan was in the zone...no mishaps, so Linda won't take away Tom's flying privileges! 😉 Good job guys.
What a guy!! This vid was really 👍👍💀 thanks for taking us
Hey taipan is a local snake to me, you would love it here in Australia
Wow! So much safety needed.
Awesome! I love this channel! Had my heart pumping haha
That was so exciting to watch! Edge of my seat here!
Well done Kenan, that was brilliant👌😃

Can you ask Carl what other Australian snakes does he have? If possible can you do a video on the ones he has
Wow this was so awesome! I won't lie normally I am calm during your videos but this one had me on the edge of my seat a bit haha. Freaking amazing!!!
The look on his face when he said you bleed out of every hole 😂, Kenan didn’t look so enthusiastic atm
The guy at the end who was cleaning the pond had me dead 😂
Maybe you could do a First Aid video, informing us of the correct procedure is, just in case of a bite from a venomous creature.
Good idea, i like it
Wickid Wildlife made a really good video on that subject. th-cam.com/video/UarFDg3sdLI/w-d-xo.html

Thanks Courtney!🤠
even though during Kenan moving the snake back to the enclosure and me know that Kenan has already uploaded this video and is fine. I was still a little scared for him :D.
I from Australia and the inland taipan is my favourite snake even thou it is the most dangerous in the world. Love vid keep it up
Thanks bud, it was a great thrill to handle this snake

Awesome...! I'd love to check out his place!
That Y i Love this channel ,you learn from the masters....
Would you guys recommend a taipan for my first snake? Or should I go with the gabbon viper or puff adder?
I recommend proper education first ;-) your question equals "which flowers should I choose on my funeral". Please get well informed
Thank you for all the educational vids u do!
Your welcome. And thank you for watching!🤠

You can tell that Carl has mentored a lot of people of the years.

Wild shit Kenan.... fun to watch but no thanks ✋🏾 I’ll stick with the corn snake
I got these in my backyard haha
GH( good handling) BRO
👍🤠
Oh I don’t think I could do that 😳
Do you still sell tortoises?
Does extracting there venom stress them out and possibly endanger the animal as far as there life span and how does that effect them Kenan
From other videos and articles I have seen/read, yes, it can be hard on them. These animals are very valuable for their venom, so, everything possible is usually done to reduce emotional and physical stress. They are rotated with other snakes of their same species, to give each one enough of a break to recuperate. But there can be long term damage done to their necks over time or by accident.

How's slinky doin after all the snake eating incident??
He’s fat and happy🤠
Awesome
Inland Taipans are known to be docile.
Poor little snakes 🐍 💆🏾♀️ these poor animals got hurt so had they can never walk again 😞😞😞
not true, they will chase u. Amazing vid ty
And he only moved him a foot. How many nerves the first guy had
Wow!
🤠
I love you
❤️🤠
I don’t know 🤷🏼♂️ but it’s probably better to deal with full snake instead of a hungry one..?!?!
Where's Tom's turn?
Look at his hands
It's probably vitiligo.
Kenan love your vids im from australia ang love snakes i have wanted a python but my mum dont like them i also like tortoises but due to the strick import and export laws im young and alot to learn thanks shout me out plz
Thanks for watching Mason. Just keep learning and when u get older u can have whatever you want:)
Hi
Hi
The taipan in the video looks sedated, that’s why the guy is handling it
Greg M the bloke milks snakes for a living, he doesn’t need to sedate them before handling them
I clicked this so fast I bought dropped my new phone
That’s gonna be a big ol NOPE
🤠
1st
hey from ohio guys love the vids
👍thanks!
