In my experience....being in the swamps and woods most of the year at work...if you're in the southern U.S., it's likely a moccasin (cottonmouth). Their nests usually have a strong urine/decaying smell. Watch out for them, they'll actually come after you, and if you get bit, even though you go to the doctor and they jab that needle in for the IV and anti-venom, they inbreed so bad that the anti-venom may or may not be real effective.
All cobra are venomous. Death would depend on the quantity of venom injected and the health of the recipient. But certainly many people are killed by snakes in the tropics each year. If medical aid and anti venom is provided within minutes of snake bite, chances of saving the victim are pretty high. If it is a king cobra that bit, the venom is very potent and can kill the victim within 5 mins.
No, the Common Indian Krait (Bungarus caeruleus) is considered to be the deadliest snake in India. It has potent neurotoxic venom and is responsible for numerous snakebite-related deaths in the country each year.
Sheep are equipped with the ability to resist the effects of the bite of a venomous snake. upon being bitten by a venomous snake when the poisonous toxins enter the blood stream of the sheep, the sheep has a natural protection written in its DNA that identifies the toxin and an anti-venom is created that neutralizes the toxicity of the venom and the toxins are passed through the sheep's system without any side effects, thus saving the life of the sheep.
that is a great question, to find what year the lucky one is. Take 2 medium size bowls and mix a bowl of sugar and snake venom. if you eat it, you win
The Year of the Horse follows the Year of the Snake.
There are very few reported deaths from cottonmouth snake bites each year. These snakes are venomous, but their bites are rarely fatal due to the availability of antivenom and the fact that they generally deliver "dry bites" without venom. It's important to seek medical attention promptly if bitten by this snake.
It is estimated that vipers, which include several venomous snake species, kill several thousand people globally each year. These deaths are largely attributed to the severity of their venom and the areas where these snakes are commonly found.
depends on your body but generally 2-3 weeks.
