We are pleased to have received a very nice report from Alex Paterna...

"Hi Clem. I always use the new mini collapsible hook for rescues. It is very comfortable and fits in every pocket.
In the photograph I handle an adult male Vipera aspis francisciredi that was rescued on the Gran Sasso Mountain.
This snake was spotted in a touristic area which attracts hundreds of people per day. The workers responsible of the area are called the National Park's rangers, and we went there to rescue and release the adder in a safe place.
Regards, Alex"
