2012 statistics of exotic reptile deaths?

Does anybody have any 2012 statistics for deaths caused by exotic reptiles?

According to this,

http://www.bornfreeusa.org/database/...es=R&exocat=HD

2. This is an anti-exotics site I believe, so I'm sure they would record most if not all of the negative stories.

Both of these were venomous deaths. This search was narrowed in year 2012-2012, all US states, "Reptiles" as species (they record bears / circus etc as well)

Interesting, according to this site, since 1990, there have been 20 cases of reptile related deaths in the US. 1 being a 5mo old baby dying from salmonella presumed to be from the pet Iguana, 11 cases were resulting from venomous bites, and 8 were from constrictors.

8 deaths, in 22 years...now lets look at other animal statistics...

Thanks for the link.

Side bar - in the last 15 years or so, I believe the majority of deaths by constrictors has taken place in the state of New York, hence their panties in a bundle mentality behind large snakes. I can think of 3 specifically. . .

Here's a link for not deaths but attacks as well documented by our buddies at the HSUS ;-)

Look at May 1, 2011 from the previous link. Hard to believe that people actually get away with these claims.

That has to be the strongest 5ft python in the world. Macho pythons on steroids...pullin 6ft gardeners into bushes and stuff...dang.

Kind of like how the "14 ft" boa disabled the feeling in the "experienced" wildlife researcher's hand? That whole article was completely exaggerated beyond belief.

Yeah, or how 90% of these are medically treated python or boa bites. Some of them are real incidents that are tragic - see: Dave McKinney, “Python Suffocates Boy,” Chicago Sun-Times, August 31, 1999, but the rest are just ludicris to say the least. In EMT class they teach you to treat EVERY snake bite as if it was from a venomous snake or a snake that was infected with some disease. If everyone on here filed a dr. report every time they got bit, this list would be ridiculous long. The common thing is its most people who went to the Dr. in order to have evidence for a court case later on (see all the ones that mention suits, etc.).
