Heh in the rainforest it's usually the last person in a group of people hiking to see the fer-de-lance that everyone just stepped over... Venomous would rather sit still and not be bothered rather than waste a bite on something it can not eat. Least we forget that venom does more than just subdue prey, it assists in the digestion process. As far as handling wild venomous goes. I can't say anything against it as I have free handled a fair number of quick and deadly snakes including wild western diamondback Rattlesnakes. It's not for every body and serves no immediate purpose. But can be done without harm when done right.

Cheers
