My chihuahua, who is a very small little girl, was bitten by a copperhead snake yesterday and she did not die. She was bit on the face and we gave her a full Benadryl pill wrapped in cheese and the swelling went down. She is back to her usual, wonderful self today. I hope I just saved you $100 at the vet! Have a good one!

How do you get the antivenin out of the snake?
The antivenom isn't in the snake. The antivenom is produced by mixing a small amount of the snakes poison with other chemicals and ingredients that counteract the affects the poison has on the body. The venom is extracted from a snake by holding its head in a way that forces the snake to open its mouth in a biting gesture, and then the open fangs are used to puncture a plastic top stretched over a jar/vial, so the venom runs from the fangs into the container.
