| | Regular Member | Join Date: Sep-06 Location: melbourne Age/Gender: 18 | | | | its a good site for those thinking about getting venomus snakes. unfortunatly for aussies wishing to keep venomus snakes the ones commonly avaible are extreamly dangerous elapids such as tigers, browns, collets and even red bellys. and its a good thing to look at that site and relise if you get bitten by a tiger, brown or black chances are your going to have the same kind of story if you live to tell it |

| | Regular Member | Join Date: Sep-06 Location: melbourne Age/Gender: 18 | | | | yeh theres either no or 2 recorded deaths cnt memba but still black snakes are known for there large amounts of Haemotoxic enzymes in there venom which would have nasty affects such as gangreen and go to hack on the lining of blood vessels. either way whether u live or die is not what i was mainly refering to it was more the fact that if u get bitten by a ven in aus wether its a pet or wild its not going to be as simple as just going to hospital and leaving that night |

| | Regular Member | Join Date: Apr-07 Location: Vic | | | | That may be the case sometimes but not all times. Not sure of how much truth there was too it but I watched a doco of a guy getting tagged by a coastal tai and he was out of hospital the next day. But yes, what you say is right. Getting tagged by an aussie elapid wouldn't be nice. But i certainly wouldnt like to get done by any sort of rattler or viper |

|  | Regular Member | | | | | I dont think there has been any rbb bites recorded as fatal. Apparently there was in infant some time back but it wasnt confirmed as a rbb bite or something like that.
Correct me if im wroung but although the rbb are considered highly venemous, the toxicity of the venom isnt considered to be a fatal dose. Their venom doesnt effect the cns but attacks muscle tussue. |
