Originally published as Snakeman over thirty years ago to great acclaim, this is a new, expanded edition.From cobras in her kitchen to crocodiles in her backyard, Zai Whitaker has seen it all. For years, she and her ex-husband Rom Whitaker worked together for the conservation of reptiles and their habitat, and continue to do so as friends. Scaling Up is their story - funny, observant and a truly ‘wild ride’.
