How do you make anti-venom?
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.

What kind of venom do mangrove snakes have?
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

Does a poisonous snake die if it bites itself?
It depends on the snakes. Many snakes are immune to the venomous snakes that live in the same geographic areas. Most snakes, if not all, are immune to their own venom, but this is an evolutionary process produced over the past 100 million years. If two snakes of the same species bit each other, there would most likely be no effect from the venom. If two snakes of different species, from different parts of the world bit each other, it is very likely that both snakes would experience a strong reaction to the other's venom. Biting a venomous snake is not harmful as long as the stored venom is avoided. Even then, venom is not dangerous if swallowed, but is very dangerous if it enters an open wound on the biter's skin or mouth. Many birds, snakes and other animals kill and eat venomous snakes. Some have varying degrees of immunity and some are just careful. The pig is believed to get its immunity to snake bite from its thick layer of fat. For more information see the Related Link below.
