i am not familiar with T. stejnegri specifically, but Trimeresurus tend to not be life threatening.....keep in mind that it would be a VERY unpleasent experience to take a bite, a hospital visit would be highly recommended, but barring an allergic reaction to the venom (septicemia = death), the "WORST" that would happen to you would be losing a finger or a LOT of permenant scarring, loss of function to a limb, etc... the best bet is to be very careful and not get bitten. that said, Trimeresurus are a good species to start with as they are usually not overly aggressive. good luck and be careful.
