Dogs and snakes shouldn't be compared, but crossing a great dane with a ****zu is like crossing a banded jungle with a striped jungle. It is nothing at all like crossing two different species. | Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species. That is the order that the animal kingdom runs in. "Snakes" are not a species, they are an order of animals of which different Families, Genus and species of Snakes exist. Genus and Species are the two we are all familiar with. Aspidites, Morelia, Liasis etc are all examples of Different Genus. ramsayi, carinata, fuscus etc, are all examples of Species.
The Genus always begins with a capital and the species always begins with a lower case. Together they would read like so: Aspidites ramsayi, Morelia carinata, Liasis fuscus. Below is a complete taxonic naming example for a water python first and then a shingle-back second. Appologise for any slight mistakes in spelling as this is going off the top of my head. Water Python: Kindom
Animalia Phylum
Chordata Class
Reptilia Order
Squamata (snakes and lizards) suborder
Serpentes (snakes) Family
Biodae (Boas and Pythons) Genus
Liasis Species
Fuscus Shingle back. Kingdom
Animalia Phylum
Chordata Class
Reptilia Order
Squamata (snakes and lizards) Suborder
Sauria (Lizards) Family
Scincidae Genus
Tiliqua Species
rugosa

Does this mean venom wise or to keeping species pure?
