At the Expedition Medicine National Conference we have an entire lecture entitled, "Large Carnivorous Reptiles" where we discuss how to avoid injury when dealing with large reptiles like alligators (and crocodiles, anacondas, Komodo dragons, and the like), and also how to treat the wounds if an attack occurs.
Come to the most fascinating and practical CME course on practicing medicine "in the wild." Register today while seats are still available!
