We are in the second phase of this dynamic project, looking at the ecology of the king cobra.  They love rainforests, but they’re also found in plantations, and even people’s houses! Join now in assuring yourself an incredible experience to learn new skills, seeing the kings up close like never before, and a plethora of other reptiles, amphibians, birds, and large mammals they share their kingdom with. Get in touch with us to help conserve the king cobra, reach out to the local community and learn how they live with these majestic serpents every day.  Sign up soon since volunteer slots are filling up!
