520 _aBIOGRAPHY: GENERAL. Steve Irwin meets David Attenborough in this jaw-dropping account of studying the world s most venomous creatures. Venomologist Bryan Grieg Fry has one of the most dangerous jobs on earth: he works with its deadliest creatures. He s been bitten by twenty-six poisonous snakes, been stung by three stingrays, and survived a near-fatal scorpion sting while deep in the Amazon jungle. He s also broken twenty-three bones, including breaking his back in three places, and had to learn how to walk again. But when you research only the venom you yourself have collected, the adventuresand dangernever stop. Imagine a three-week-long first date in Siberia catching venomous water shrews; a wedding attended by Eastern European prime ministers with their machine-gun-wielding bodyguards and snakes; or leading a team to Antarctica that results in the discovery of four new species of venomous octopi. In pursuit of venom, Bryan has traveled the world collecting samples.
