David A. Steen is a wildlife biologist who specializes in snakes and other "creepie crawlies." He is the author of the award-winning science blog Living Alongside Wildlife where he writes about natural history, ecology, and his own research. He's also been called the "best biologist on Twitter", using his presence on the platform to help people identify reptiles in their environment and debunk common wildlife myths, particularly about snakes. He explores many of these myths in his new book, "Secrets of Snakes" published this fall by Texas A&M Press.

In this episode, we spoke to David about how to ID venomous snakes, the top three myths he’d like to dispel and whether daredevil personalities like Coyote Peterson and Steve Irwin help or hurt wildlife....and much more!
