Venom Hunters: Discovery Channel
Venom Hunters is a new series currently in production for Discovery Channel, and follows two animal enthusiasts as they search the globe for the world's most venomous creatures. This search brought the production crew to Perth Australia in late July to find the deadly Tiger Snake, where they hired BIOTHORN PTY LTD to provide on location technical assistance, animal handling, as well as establish correct licensing protocol. The project was a success and the final production is hoped to be available in early 2016.
