Since 1969, when Romulus Whitaker first established the Madras Snake Park, snake conservation in India has progressed a great deal and the Park has played a significant role in this achievement. His wife, Zai, who edits the tri-yearly Snake Park newsletter Hamadryad, was invited to describe the Park's development into an effective conservation force.
