Re: Ummmm copperhead rattlesnake
It appears that the elusive copperhead rattlesnake caiught up with these unfortunate individuals
HONG KONG (Reuters) - More than 400,000 people are poisoned by snakebites worldwide each year and 20,000 of them die, with most cases occurring in the poorest countries, researchers say.
In an article published in U.S.-based open access Public Library of Science Medicine, the researchers said the burden from snakebites was highest in South and Southeast Asia and sub-Saharan Africa.
Data on snakebites is far from comprehensive as most of them happen in places with poor healthcare systems and where record-keeping is generally poor or non-existent.
For this study, the researchers trawled through 3,256 published articles and extracted data on 68 countries.
They said, according to a conservative estimate, there are 421,000 cases of envenoming, or venom delivered through biting, each year and which lead to at least 20,000 deaths.
But the actual figures could be several times higher.

Re: Ummmm copperhead rattlesnake
They have found a couple of specie to actually be "poisonous"
The genus Rhabdophis is found to use the toxins from the frogs/toads it eats to ward off predators. And some garter specie have some toxins on them as well.
However calling venomous snakes poisonous snakes is a big thing with me as well......my 10 year old son corrects people....rofl and he can explain the difference to them to prove his case!....

I have made sure that my eight-year-old nephew can as well. It irritates the heck out of me.
