She explains how anacondas and pythons catch and consume their prey, as seen in "Anaconda" (1997), starring Jon Voight, Jennifer Lopez, and Ice Cube; and "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" (2001), starring Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, and Alan Rickman. She advises on how to avoid getting bit by a cobra, as seen in "Raiders of the Lost Ark" (1981), starring Harrison Ford. She breaks down the differences between venomous and nonvenomous snakes in "Snakes on a Plane" (2006), starring Samuel L. Jackson, Kenan Thompson, and Julianna Margulies. She looks at the way different characters seek to treat snake bites in Quentin Tarantino's "Kill Bill: Vol. 2" (2004), starring Uma Thurman, Michael Madsen, and Daryl Hannah; and "Mud" (2012), starring Matthew McConaughey.
