Mr. Dorashenko is a professional biologist, who has earned a masters degree in reptile zoology, also known as herpetology, at the University of Tashkent in Usbekistan. Mr. Dorashenko came to Cambodia in 1992 and he did spend some time working for the NGO Wild Aid, as well as an adviser to the Minister of Environment, Mok Mareth. He has also designed Cambodia´s premier zoo at Phnom Tamao, a place giving refuge to a variety of species, such as the rare sun bears, gibbons and tigers.
 At the company´s areal at Soviet Street in Sihanoukville, the SnakeHouse Bungalows & Restaurant are located amidst the exotic environment and atmosphere of a snake & crocodile farm. The snake farm houses around 20 varieties of Cambodian snakes safely in terrariums - among them king cobras, kraits and green vipers -  which are positioned partly in and around the restaurant. Some of the snakes came from villages around the country, while the deadly green vipers, cobras and pythons were caught by Mr. Dorashenko on his wildlife expeditions.
          

There are a number of accidents with snakes at Cambodia’s countryside, at the SnakeHouse they treat every year over 200 Cambodians for snake bites.
