All Snake Killers Click Here
God has made us different, he made us so unique. We slither on the ground, we have no hands and feet. Though you find us scary, or maybe just plain weird, our intentions are not to hurt you or cause you such great fear. Our venom's not meant for humans but to help us when we eat. So, please stop the senseless killing before we're all extinct. We're not saying you have to love us or tell us we're the best. God's the one who created us. So, treat us with respect.
written by Sarah Clark for Southeastern Reptile Rescue
Fears are educated into us and can, if we wish, be educated out. -Karl A. Merringer
A righteous man cares for the needs of his animal... Proverbs 12:10
The snake is an animal. It has a backbone and a heart. It has red blood. It drinks water and eats food. It breathes air and feels fear just like every other animal in the world. And, it's in a body that's the hardest thing for the average person to understand. (author-unknown)

Amber Clark, Jason's niece, spends most of her time behind the lens capturing all of Southeastern Reptile Rescue's exploits on film. Since she is terribly afraid of snakes, this seems to be the best place for her. Just kidding. She actually has done great so far. Even when the animals are a little on edge, Amber is able to maintain her cool and deal with the situation. Recently, while preparing for a snake show, we enlisted her help in packing up the reptiles. She first had to remove the snakes from their cages and put them in the transport boxes. When she reached in to pick up a 5 foot long kingsnake it decided that Amber looked appetizing and latched onto her arm (see photo below). Bleeding, but unshaken, she was able to continue. Her next task was catching the alligators. I told her that they needed to be loaded into the truck so we could leave for the show. Amber then said, "Jason, those alligators bite!" At which time I told her, "Well, you should probably be careful when you pick them up then". Luckily, the alligators are still young and quite small and she was able to catch them and walk away with all her fingers. ~ Jason Clark
Hey, I'm Amber. I am 16 years old and I'm in 11th grade.. Class of 2010!! I have the most AMAZING family and friends in the world and I love spending time with them. I love helping Jason and Sarah out with the snake shows, working with the reptiles is one of my favorite things to do. As you can see Jason puts me in some pretty odd situations, but I have to admit I have a great time when I am with him.
