The Website Is Back Up!!!
Many of you who know Living with Wildlife well will know that the website has been down for several months now.
This is because the site has been going through a total revamp to update all the details on courses, equipment and information relating snakes and snake awareness.
Well, Version 1 of the new Living with Wildlife website got launched today!!! We know there are grammatical errors and there are also links and pages that need fixing, but for those of you who know the old website, you must agree that it is a massive improvement on the old site.
It is definitely a work in progress (and this is why the comment "Version 1" was made), but you can still find a heap of new information on the new site that will be of great value to those who have an interest in this topic.
A HUGE thank you must go out to the staff at Compliance and Competency Management - they have been working tirelessly (particularly over the past couple of days) to get the website back up and running - your efforts are much appreciated.
Check it out via this link and let us know what you think.

a HUGE thankyou!!!!
Living with Wildlife recently conducted a Working with Venomous Snakes refresher course for the New Zealand Ministry of Agriculture & Forestry.
You may not be aware but the Kiwis are having an increasing problem with people trying to sneak snakes into the country to keep as pets.
To help with this problem, staff from the Ministry of Agriculture & Forestry have been coming to Australia for a number of years now so that Living with Wildlife can teach them safe capture and relocation techniques.
One way that culprits are trying to get the snakes into New Zealand is inside shipping containers, so to make the training more realistic Living with Wildlife thought that having a shipping container available for the Kiwis to find and bag the snakes would be a good idea.
We made some enquiries and Grant Lucas, Operations Manager at P&O Trans Australia (SA) Pty Ltd gave us one of their shipping containers to use for the duration of the course absolutely free of charge!!!!
Thank you so much for your kind donation Grant - not only did you make the course much more realistic for the Kiwis but it also saved us a lot of money and every dollar that can be saved in business is much appreciated.
If you ever need the services of a professional, customer service oriented group to freight your goods, give Grant and his team at P&O Trans Australia (SA) Pty Ltd a call - we found them fantastic to deal with.

Anyone who does not believe that Australia really is a "lucky country" should read more of these articles!!!!
