Snake stuff

more than 5 million bites occur each year. This leads to more than 150,000 deaths and about three times as many amputations.

Snakebites still exact a high toll in Africa.

Snakebites are a major public health issue in most tropical parts of the world,

It’s a really bad idea to cut, suck or wash the bite site.

Two main snake families that cause the most dangerous snakebites in sub-Saharan Africa are – vipers and elapids.

The carpet viper (Echis ocellatus) has the highest death toll of any snake.

All we have to be concerned about is little 'ol rattlesnakes and moccasins. The occasional copperhead.

Just came across a perfect roadkill copperhead early this evening. Blood was still wet on the road and one side and front of head was the only thing smashed. Got it on ice and will skin it out in the morning, it was still moving right before dark.

Be just like every other invasive species soon.

Some FOOL will sneak a few in as "exotic" pets.

Then some other FOOL will buy them.
They will escape or be turned loose.

Look no further than The Everglades.
Check out the fish and snakes.
