Dr. Jenkins sits down with Dr. Jeff Ettling to talk about the conservation of Armenian Vipers. They start with a discussion of vipers from the region and how there is relatively high diversity and endemism in this part of West Asia. They discuss aspects of Armenian Viper research including spatial ecology, prey availability, genetics, and the impact of human disturbance. Then they focus on conservation programs including the protection of land, captive breeding, and reintroduction. If you are a viper fanatic you are not going to want to miss this one!Connect with Jeff at the Jacksonville Zoo.
