What is the most toxic snake in the world? What is the most "dangerous" snake in the world,N America, Africa,Australia? What snake species kills the most people each year? Where can I sell venom? These are just a few that I can think of. Oh,yes, where can I obtain antivenin? Almost forgot that one!!

One of the ones I get the most is
"How can I keep snakes from coming into my yard?"
Some others I have heard this year are:
"Do Water Moccasins bite underwater?"
"Do baby snakes inject all of their venom on their first bite and is it safe to handle them after that?"
Hope this helps.

Just last week I "rescued" a large Eastern Coral Snake (Micrurus fulvius) from a local backyard commando. He told me "Coral Snakes don't bite. Their mouth is too small."
The snake, as I was trying to coax it into a plastic container, proved him to be incredibly wrong by GNAWING on my snake stick and then, with mouth flat open (inside of bottom jaw forming flat unbroken plane with inside of upper jaw) commenced trying to bite through the clear plastic container it was in. A tremendous display!
Can little snakes bite?
Can Coral Snakes bite other than between the fingers/toes/etc?
I can't believe there are still people who haven't figured out...If it has a mouth, it can bite!

Thanks you guy's. I always hear it's to small to bite. Or if you cut a joint snake into it will grow back together. HUH !!! Or a coachwhip will rap around your leg and whip you bad. (Smile) I just let them think that. Maybe they will leave it alone. Crazzy stuff.

Someone asked if the rattlesnakes found in NV were venomous. He said that someone had told that the rattlesnakes in northern Nevada did not have venom.
