Less then a bee sting, I get no reaction other people get alot.

Mildly venomous not considered dangerous to humans Very Nice looking whip snake

not considered dangerous but can have an anafelactic shock in some rare cases
a very beautiful snake

Not considered dangerous and I bet this poor bugger (no disrespect intended) thought so as well.

Doesn't matter though, anaphylaxis can occur from any quantity of any substance, including but not limited to snake venom. I personally have no idea if i am allergic but i will treat this snake as potentially deadly until i know for sure. (just on a side note, even if you are allergic often your first bite you will not have any adverse signs or symptoms whilst your body is building it's immune response. but the second one might kill you. just a warning to those who have been bitten once and think they're alright)

yea that was the best one i found, but on one day last spring i found 14 whip snakes under broken pieces of fibro in a 10m x 10m area so there was alot to choose from

They are as common as dirt in some areas.
Still think they are awesome seeing as they are so active. Just annoying as they don't feed on rodents to easily.
