Snake Handler Haast Faces Death Daily At Miami Serpentarium
William E. Haast, 57, directs Miami Serpentarium where he handles about 100 deadly snakes daily from 1,200 on hand. He’s been bitten by 105 venomous reptiles and survived 13 near-death incidents, claiming an immunity to venom as he extracts and preserves venom for anti serum and research. He works to be gentle with snakes, saying bites result from careful handling, not carelessness.
