The disenthrall of young vipers

In order to maintain the population of Vipera berus in its natural ecotopes our specialists had disenthralled the young growth of Vipera berus bore by female of working livestock in the summer 2013.

Thus in July, 2013 the Head Herpetologist Alexander Pisarev and the Herpetologist Vasily Kokenko had disenthralled in the vipers' catching stations of Kolyvan, Kragat and Chulym territories 1430 young vipers which had seen the light in the summer 2013.

The disenthralls were done there they had noticed the heightened concentration of the main feed objects of young vipers such as young growth of agile frog (Rana dalmatina) and newborn viviparous lizards (Zootoca vivipara).

We believe that our fosterlings will successfully pass the winter and in 4-5 years they will take part in the increase of Vipera berus population in Novosibirsk region. Photo 1, Photo 2.
