The answer is no.

Bringing in the snake after being bitten is a common mistake victims often do,

and many unreliable websites and some other articles on this website say to do so.

Doctors are able to recognize the venom in your blood or wound.

How did they treat a rattlesnake bite in the 1840s?

If someone got bitten by a venomous snake, another pioneer would take a knife and cut an "x" at the bite location. They would then suck out the blood and hopefully the poison. Sometimes this worked and sometimes this didn't.If it didn't work the victim would most likely die. If they happen to be lucky enough to survive, the body part that was bitten would normally have to be amputated. If they were bitten on their core, death was almost certain.


Can a chicken be killed by a snakes poison?

It depends on the type of snake. The majority of snakes are not venomous and a bite would not be life-threatening to a cat. A few are venomous and their bites can be life-threatening. If your cat is bitten and the snake is not venomous or you are not sure, take it to the vet immediately.

Do you die quickly if a rattlesnake bites you?

It depends on the species of rattlesnake, where on the body you were bitten and how soon you receive proper medical treatment. Without proper treatment it would take a day or more to die. If the bite is from a species with a particularly strong venom, especially containing neurotoxins, death may come quite quickly.
