Best Answer

It depends on the species, the amount of venom injected, and health of the victim.

The eastern diamondback, the largest species, injects larger amounts of venom, and could kill in a matter of hours. The Mojave has the most toxic venom, ounce for ounce, and could also kill in that amount of time.

What is the coral snake's venom yield?

A bite from a coral snake injecting 3-5mg of venom, is usually fatal. Compare that to the Mojave rattle snake which would have to inject three times that amount. The actual yield from 'milking' a Coral snake would be higher - and would depend on the size of the venom glands in each individual snake.


Why does the devil punish people for worsipping him wouldn't he be happy with them?

Satan is the father of all lies. As he himself is miserable because of his punishment, so he wished all his followers to be so. Satan has no love for any of his followers for he does not understand what love is. He is incapable of showing love. There is an American Indian story which says "There was once a young brave who stood on the top of a desert mountain as part of his initiation to manhood. While there he saw a Rattle snake. The Rattle snake asked the youth if he would carry him to the bottom of the mountain because the snake was tired. "But you will bite me" Said the youth. The snake promised not to bite the youth. So the boy carried him to the bottom of the mountain whereupon the snake bit the boy. "You said you would not bite me" He said. "That is so" said the Rattle snake "But you knew what I was when you picked me up".

Is the rattlesnake aggressive?

Rattlesnakes do not actually want to bite you. They rattle the tip of their tail as a warning to stay away, and if the enemy does not leave, it will bite. Rattlesnakes with babies are especially aggressive, so they may bite right away.

A rattlesnake wouldn't be able to eat a human. Snakes can't bite parts off, so they are limited to eating things they can swallow whole. And a human, even a child, would simply be too big for a rattlesnake to swallow.

Can a king snake kill a rattlesnake?

King snakes are essentially constrictors, which kill their prey by suffocating them. The modus operandi of a king snake is to first bite the victim ( a rattle snake) and then rapidly throw coils around the anterior body of the rattle snake, tightening them continuously so that the rattle snake is not able to breathe. The king snake maintains this tight coil until the rattler is dead. It then releass the coil, uses its forked tongue (and Jacobson's organ) to find the rattler's head and proceeds to swallow the prey. During this process, even if the king snake is bitten by the rattler, it does not matter as the king snake is immune to the venom of its prey.
