Could a dimetrodon spit poison?
Dimetrodon belongs to a group of reptiles that later evolved into mammals. Some of these reptiles were said to be poisonous.

It´s likely it didn´t inject poison because otherwise scientist would have found hollow fangs like in the case of venomous snakes. It´s quite possible that dimetrodon´s mouth was full of deadly bacteria, like in the case of komodo dragons and crocodiles, which would be just as deadly.
