The private gaming company said the special will be filmed outside O'Sheas Casino starting Sunday as part of an Animal Planet special titled "Venom in Vegas," the Las Vegas Sun reported Saturday.

Inside the 16-foot by 20-foot glass box will be a bed and bathroom for Schultz to use, Harrah's said. The special will begin with 50 snakes inside the box with the "Recon" star with five more snakes added daily until filming concludes Jan. 26.

The snakes will include cobras, pythons and rattlesnakes. Due to the risks involved, officials from the University of Arizona's Venom Immunochemistry, Pharmacology and Emergency Response Institute will be on hand for the filming.

Schultz is reportedly doing the special, which will air Feb. 9, to raise awareness of the need for anti-venom for snakebite victims around the world.
