TIME: He Saved the Largest Venomous Snake in the Americas. Now, He Hopes It Could Save Human Lives.

Which would you rather save, a cuddly panda or a deadly viper? The snake is more valuable than you think. I’m proud to finally share this story I’ve been working on since early 2018 about a man saving the world’s largest pit viper. Photos by Stephanie Foden Story on TIME

Throwback to falling in love on warm Montreal nights, when your hair was short and my beard was long. Happy chocolate day @stephaniefoden!
