42 | Snakes of China with Dr. Kevin Messenger

Dr. Jenkins sits down with Dr. Kevin Messenger to talk about
snake diversity in China.  A unique opportunity first
brought Dr. Messenger from his home state of North Carolina to a
remote region of China.   Listen as we learn about China’s
ecosystems and climate and how similar they are to the United
States, as well as the widely variable diversity of snakes in the
country - ranging from no species in the high western deserts to
over a hundred species in the tropics.  Finally, discover
more about the natural history and ecology of Rat Snakes, Mang
Vipers, and Fea’s Vipers.
