And he\u2019s not shying away from any life-threatening challenges with his latest YouTube series, \u20187 Deadliest Snakes to Handle\u2019, with a new episode released every Friday from 8 October through to 19 November.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are many species of snakes throughout the world that are incredibly dangerous to work, and right now I\u2019m searching for the species that is the most dangerous and deadly,\u201d explained Dingo, who has just survived spending five nights in the \u2018Cage of Death\u2019 sleeping alongside 16 of the world\u2019s most dangerous animals.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAlthough these snakes can be dangerous for professionals to handle, they don\u2019t intend humans any harm when left alone. Through these series, I hope viewers will learn more about the different snake species, their unique personalities and characteristics, and maybe make some sort of connection with the natural world. The more we know, the less we fear and the better chance we have of all living harmoniously with these incredible creatures.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Dingo will be counting down the 7 Deadliest Snakes to Handle with an episode released every Friday from 8 October, finishing with the world\u2019s deadliest snakes to handle on Friday, 19 November. For each species he encounters, Dingo provides a rating based on the following three factors:<\/p>\n<p>1. The snake\u2019s venom toxicity.<br \/>2. The personality or temperament of the snake.<br \/>3. Dingo\u2019s Box Test \u2013 how hard it is to capture the snake.<\/p>\n<p>To kick of the series, Dingo had to box a bushmaster \u2013 the longest viper species in the world which comes all the way from South America. There are three species of bushmaster snakes and Dingo was tasked with handling the wily black-headed bushmaster for episode one. With its concoction of fatal venom, its volatile switch, tremendously long fangs and strike, Dingo had his hands full with this one! Check out the first video and find out Dingo\u2019s rating at https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=c8sZSPQOVLg.<\/p>\n<p>The series finale, which is set to feature the #1 deadliest snake to handle, will be shot on location at Crocworld Conservation Centre on the KZN South Coast. This incredible facility \u2013 which offers educational talks and demonstrations, rehabilitation for wildlife and has a successful breeding programme \u2013 is also home to some of the planet\u2019s most dangerous reptiles. Find out which is considered the deadliest by watching Dingo\u2019s 7 Deadliest Snakes to Handle on the Dingo Dinkelman YouTube Channel every Friday.<\/p>\n<p>For more videos and adventures, check out the YouTube channel, follow Dingo on Facebook at @dingodinkelman, on Instagram at Dingo Dinkelman or visit www.dingowild.com.
