Snake bite first aid guide

Got some old "Shikaar" tales to share? Found a great new spot to Fish? Any interesting camping experiences? Discussion of Back-packing, Bicycling, Boating, National Parks, Wildlife, Outdoor Cooking & Recipes etc.

Snake bite first aid guide

Post by eljefe » Thu Nov 22, 2007 6:16 pm

I have a 100 of these booklets to give away.
First come first served, PM snail mail adds. Will courier
If I get multiple requests from any one city, can we have a local who will coordinate/ collect and hand over?

Mack The Knife,
Please keep one for me.

Good work, Asif. Have read your article about treating snake bites on IA too.

Asif, charge the punters atleast Rs.250.00 per copy and give the proceeds to charity. That should weed out the city slicker types who really don't have a use for it but just want a freebie.
