So whilst field Herping can be the best of times, it can be a pretty dangerous hobby, by the nature of the species, if venomous, the locations you find them in remote, extreme temperatures, weather, the potential for accidents, foreign diseases, tiredness, hunger and all manner of interesting things,  sometimes it turns real bad real quick.
