BBC News reports:

"A reptile enthusiast has urged Harry Potter fans not to ask for snakes for Christmas, after the creatures took a lead role in the junior wizard's latest movie.

Rhys Jones has organised a special evening at Cardiff University on Thursday in which experts will be showing off venomous - but not deadly - snakes to the public.

He hopes to correct the public images of snakes and encourage people to handle them correctly.

The exhibition evening on Thursday will introduce the 300-strong audience to a boa, a python and a milk snake."
