I am looking for actual information and/or evidence on venomoids, the venomoiding surgery, and health consequences to the animals. As you all know I have been neutral toward this issue in the past, but I may be changing my position. I spoke with Scott (assistant to Ray Hunter) on the phone the other day and he tells me that 75% of the snakes die during or directly after the surgery and that another 15% will die from complications steaming from the surgery. If those numbers are accurate then one must kill 9 snakes to get one good void. If my research backs these numbers, then I am definitely joining the anti-void camp. I am not looking for opinions here, I need hard facts, research, and perhaps a contact to someone who actually performs the surgery. Thanks for any help that can be offered.

Everything you need to know about venomoid surgery but were afraid to ask is right here on our site in an excellent article written by one of our members - Jeff Miller.
Hope this helps.
