they are born with it
Basically, they take venom from snakes and inject tiny quantities into horses or sheep, which makes the animal immune. They take small amounts of the horse's blood, remove the blood cells, and inject the rest in order to counter the snake venom.
A baby flamingo typically takes around 28-32 days to hatch from its egg.
A baby's skull typically finishes forming by around 2 years of age. The fontanelles, soft spots on a baby's head, close by this time, allowing the skull to grow and develop fully.
A small dose of the actual venom you're wanting to create an antidote for - is injected into a large animal (usually a horse or cow). The amount injected is not sufficient to cause the animal harm, but enough to trigger the immune system. The animal produces antibodies to fight the invading venom. After a time, a quantity of blood is extracted, and the antibodies separated from the rest of the blood. The antibodies are then 'diluted' to make a larger, but weaker quantity, and this forms the dose of anti-venin. When a bite-victim is injected with anti-venin - their body produces antibodies (just like the horse or cow in the original step) which fight against the invading toxins.
Yes, they take anthing sweet, even at hummingbird feeders.
No. Venomous snakes can control when they release venom.
No. Snakes inject a venom which they have in ther fangs. Some venoms are stronger than others some take minutes to kill a person others take days. There are some snakes that dont have any venom at all but if you find one I wouldn't test to see if is venomus or not.
The Inland Taipan venom would kill a grown man in 45 minutes.
sea snakes have extremely potent venom and a human, if bitten, (this is highly unlikely, as sea snakes are extremely unagressive) would most likely be dead within 10 minutes without proper medical care
Not usually, the snakes are too small to take on a full grown rat, however they might take baby rats.
it will take five minnset
no it is not true that mongooses are immuned to snake venom. They take the risk of getting killed when they attack snakes.
The snakes don't take care of their young. They lay eggs and leave.

Mangrove snakes (Bioga dendrophila spp) have a neurotoxic venom. The venom is not generally thought to be of medical significance in human envenomations although is capable of causing swelling, bruising and significant pain to the victim. The primary purpose of the snake's venom is to take birds as prey. The venom of the mangrove snake is made to target birds and is quite disabling for the avain prey. Scientists are looking at this venom's application for biomedical applications. Doug Hotle Curator of Herpetology Natural Toxins research Center Texas A&M University-Kingsville
depends on whos doing it
probably Black mambas as they use a neurotoxic venom which can kill an unlucky human in minutes, depending on the size and well being of the human though it could take 30-60 minutes but the least is 20 minutes
