{"id":46,"name":"Clint Pustejovsky","url":"","description":"Houston is home to many snakes and is also where Clint\u2019s passion for snakes began.\r\n\r\nAs a 5 year old child, Clint was reading reptile books from the local library\u00a0 and his elementary school, and by third grade he had read every available reptile and amphibian book.\r\n\r\nClint has has been studying and catching snakes, venomous and nonvenomous, from that moment to this moment.\r\nAt the age of 11, he met a local nature scientist, Dr. Robert A, Vines, who taught Clint how to catch and handle venomous snakes and better ID venomous from nonvenomous. This was 1970 and snake grabbers were not readily available as they are today, so Clint learned how to make his own grabbers, snares, hooks and pinning devices, and continued practicing and honing his skills over the years.\r\n\r\nHe received a B.S. in Communications from the University of Houston. Clint has also been featured in many newspapers, magazines and regularly asked to do television interviews.\r\n\r\nHe continues traveling around Texas entertaining and teaching audiences (companies, schools, TPWD, etc.) of all sizes and ages how to properly ID snakes, what do in case of envenomation, and overall handling and safety.","link":"https:\/\/www.quickreferencepublishing.com\/wholesale\/author\/clint_pustejovsky\/","slug":"clint_pustejovsky","avatar_urls":{"24":"https:\/\/www.quickreferencepublishing.com\/wholesale\/wp-content\/plugins\/one-user-avatar\/assets\/images\/wpua-32x32.png","48":"https:\/\/www.quickreferencepublishing.com\/wholesale\/wp-content\/plugins\/one-user-avatar\/assets\/images\/wpua-96x96.png","96":"https:\/\/www.quickreferencepublishing.com\/wholesale\/wp-content\/plugins\/one-user-avatar\/assets\/images\/wpua-96x96.png"},"meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.quickreferencepublishing.com\/wholesale\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/46","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.quickreferencepublishing.com\/wholesale\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users"}]}}
