I want to know if SAIMR culls the animal and collects the duvernoys gland, or whether they "milk" the snake.   RE: Boomslang venom collection Reply by tj on September 11, 2008 Mail this to a friend! They milk them. Culling would be time consuming and would require killing many snakes. Boomslangs fangs are more towards the front of the mouth (about mid way), than other colubrids, and are fairly large. They have a pretty effective delivery system.   RE: Boomslang venom collection Reply by GREGLONGHURST on September 11, 2008 Mail this to a friend! They have a pretty effective delivery system. Indeed they do! The fangs are large for an opistoglyph, and swing forward quite a bit. ~~Greg~~     Page 1 of 1     Next Topic:   Just for fun, lion vs Viper video-Off Topic Previous Topic:   Hide Boxes Email Subscription You are not subscribed to this topic.
