Best Answer

Poisonous snakes are useful as their poison has a lot of citrate.this poison is stored to heal other people from dangerous snake bites.

the PYCLAMIN Citrate is present in the poisons of a very few snake species.

but if these snakes bites someone, the man cannot survive even if he is given an antidote immediately after the snake has bit the man because these poisons are toxic enough to kill 35-38 people at once.

then these poisons are stored and are used create skin and anti-poison medicines.

I Hope you are satisfied with my answer

First off, there are no 'poisonous' snake, there are venomous snakes. A poison must be ingested (eaten) to do its work. A venom is injected. Venomous snakes are important because they help control the population of rodents. Rodents pose a much greater threat than venomous snakes. Many carry deadly diseases which they transmit to humans. Rodents also are in direct competition with humans for the same foods. They eat or destroy vast amounts of grain each year that could be used to feed the hungry populations of the world.
