@Oldskool01Hakken dude - read the blurb - and some of the comments by 'horse' people below - most of what is happening is completely normal - so we weren't being a-holes - round about the last 20 seconds is really the first sign something is wrong - yeah we were giggling, it was a fun morning. btw - thanks for the hit - this vid has been making youtube money for me for 3 years now.
Just curious how did you know it was a brown snake?
That is not normal young horse behavior. Any horse that restless and rolling is telling you something. Usually it means colic but it sure took someone a long time to notice something was wrong. And I've had horses for 30 years but even people here who say they don't know anything about horses are clued in immediately!

@summerhorse disagree with you there - every foal we've had has similar play sessions - Lucy in particular (to this day does strange stuff from time to time) - she recently featured in an equine pictorial gallery.
Reason we knew it was a brown snake is that it was a dry season, blacks don't come out that much in dry seasons - mainly wet, browns do, and generally very aggressive.
@pbrskater26 I am amazed that you picked up on the altruistic behaviour, that was the first thing that really alerted me to a problem, You see, the chestnut who is trying to get her up is her brother - they were both born on the place and are very close, Yes, as the vet was able to come very quickly, the antivenin worked!
@sonnifer one of those cause and effect things - when you first make that assessment of 'what could cause this' snakebite was the most obvious choice - either that or twisted bowl. In any case job for a vet. I suppose the thing a lot of people don't get is that what they get up to in the first 4 minutes is relatively normal for every foal I've known... I once watched a foal, 'get up, lie down, get up, lie down, then she trotted off with mum.. swear she was practicing ;)
@UFOsaucer1 - most of it is normal behavior for a young horse - which is how you can tell people who actually live with horses in this comments trail. This is an accidentally shot first 4 minutes of a brown snake bite on a foal, when I realized - I put it youtube for other horse people to see- totally normal behavior or activities - until until the last 10-15 seconds. People who never lived with horses generally take the 'you dumb ignorant redneck line' - have a great day
@fassifernit well, I never called you any names nor even thought so....was jsut a question......and yea I can see it would not be easy to recognize at first for anyone....however, i would say the first time the foul dropped to its knees and the other horse lifted it up that it was strange behaviour....anyway, glad you got it to the vet....kudos!
@capebee thanks - really appreciate the kind words - Lucy is doing great - she one of the healthiest horses about the place, and a great big smoochy heart - the best bit ;)
I just find it funny how soo many people are so quick in saying that you are a douche and saying all this Shit. If most people where in this situation I don't think they would have had any idea what was going on until alot later when it was obvious something was wrong. This guy did the right thing. And I know that if he knew there was something wrong earlier he would have called the vet right away. Good work on getting the vet so fast mate. You saved a life.
@MOTUL76 thank you - it's funny - my wife and i decided to put this up (I was showing her how the camera worked) so that anyone with horses might recognize the signs earlier. Our local horse doctor was called about 30 seconds after the camera stopped and then without seeing the snake ourselves we had to make a decision about antivenom to give her - brown snake is $500 - black snake $1200, we had 1 chance - I went for brownsnake because it was a dry season - which is better for browns to breed
@gedogadoes1 read the blurb you wanka - you obviously have not spent that much time around horses... the reason she lived was we were there.. and the vet was called within 4 minutes of the bite - which we didn't know about at the time of filming - but you would know that if you could read you ignorant git
Bit strange the brownie was around with the three horses walking around.. Maybe Lucy went scouting on her own.
A possible differentiation from colic distress is that she didn't stomped the floor with the hinds nor tried to nibble her belly.
Of course you couldn't say earlier; she was doing normal fowl antics, and she wasn't lame either.Only thing was she was doing it too much and too often and in the end she looked spaced out. So fine you were near then.
You two arguing over the symptoms of the horse are both idiots and incorrect. The horse shows classic signs of molestation. However in this instance it appears that the horse was the molester and not the molested since you are all offspring of the horse's arse.
@fassifernit One small correction with this statement: You meant to say that your assailant is "at MOST" five years old. We wouldn't want to give them more credit than they deserve, would we?
I'm not going to pretend to understand everything about horses, but from the video, Lucy actually displayed pretty typical behavior (to my knowledge). I think you did a fine job of noting her slight abnormalities and using Joe's hints of "worry" to discover the snake bite. Good work.
@angelmouse432 - ah yes - another equine professional - if you don't recognize these activities as normal horse behaviour untill the end of the vid it proves your ignorance, not your stupidity - foals lie down so often, roll all that sort of thing - most people I know who have horses, and live closely with them, use the 'dead foal' routine.
you should spend some time with them - they are amazing animals - not arseholes like humans ;)
@fassifernit I actually am an equine professional. Good quesswork on your part. It was clear from fairly early on that she wasn't right, why else would you be videoing her?
@angelmouse432 - only reason we were videoing was because I was showing my wife how to use the camera - you aren't an equine professional or that familiar with horses - striking a trough, yep - pretty common, laying down, getting up, pretty common - so much so -most people I know make the joke 'dead foal'.
Around the 4th minute it's pretty obvious something is up more than normal. And as someone pointed out previous - symptoms could have been a gut ache as well - but we know our animals well :)
@fassifernit Well i am, but i don't have to prove that to you. Think what you like, i don't really care. Odd we never hear you instructing your wife on how to use the camera isn't it.
She shows colic symptoms quite early on, but sadly i can't educate everyone about distress signals from horses.
good thing you noticed. where can you get a vet in a hurry from in this area? must be so funny watching all of this rite? Werent you alarmed immediately at the sight of this?
@lunafringe10 no.. up until the 3rd ish minute - all activity is quite normal for a horse.. foals get up and down all the time - and striking a trough is very very normal for horses in a hot climate - water cools their legs.. Lucy has always and still does enact most of these actions... she's now 6 years old and quite fit:)
Princessdee1987 the horse's behaviour isnt that strange... it is not "almost dying" it is rolling around a bit and is a bit restless... looks more like it has colic than snake bite. They called the vet. Horse lives. The end. Dont judge other people, you arent a vet. BTW... I am. STFU.
Well, if one was completely oblivious to the fact that something was wrong with the way she acted, one might be able to mistake her first fall as being playful or something. But the second time she fell should have been like a slap in the face. It was obvious that something was wrong, and instead of video taping and watching her hurt, you should have set the camera down and gone to check her out first. While horses are playful, none keep stumbling and falling unless they are sick or afflicted.
dont worry about that lot there dumb arss i probely wouldnt of noticed ethere so how are talking about i think that its an easy mistaci the can happen but you have a butiful cestnut and your other horses are nice to so dont woirrie about what they say from your supporter
you fucking dumb idiot!!! obviously you shouldnt own horses coz you dont know anything about them, a horse that keeps laying down like that is obviously in distress and yes you may not have realized it was bitten by a snake but the immediate reaction to a horse behaving like that is you think it might have colic and take it to the vet and then they will tell you that it has been bitten by a snake but noooooo you dumb fucks just watched the poor thing and suffer and just laughed!!!!!!!!!!!
she was young and strong but clearly in distress...I saw a rattlesnake kill a young horse -it bit him on the nose. the little colt suffered quite a bit but in the end he just didn make it. no vet and no anti venom near.
BTW, LSD is not a poison. and if the trip was pleasant then the flashback is too. they don't last long anyway.
You guys did nothing wrong at all. Ya'll did not know and it's not your fault so don't let idiots on here let you think you did something wrong. I can see you love your animals
Dude, you're wrong as well! Before you go off trying to teach us all about viruses and poisons, you need to know that snake venom IS NOT a poison. You need to go back and read a little more about venom vs. poison!
At 0.59 - 1.04 you can see her slightly stumble with her leg and continues when she staggers to the trough? And again...her balance looks odd. At 3.49 it appears that she may try to indicate where the wound is as she licks or tries to on her her left side - near her back leg? The other horse knows straight away and tries to keep her up on her feet. It's bite is a sure fire way to say to you "Something's wrong". Good she's okay, but even I could tell within the first minute.
@msk7046 um.. educated guess.. we were still in drought - it was a dry season, browns and eastern browns are far more 'out there' in the dry, where as,.. if it was a wet season, more than likely a black or red belly black.... luckily I was right :) btw brown snake antivenom = $700 black snake antivenom = $1200, but that can vary a little depending on availability.
@Princessdee1987 When they said 'we've got a dead foal.' I think they were making reference to the fact that she was laying down. It's hard to tell when your horse has been bitten by a snake, honestly.
@Princessdee1987 its just amazing. anyone can see that was something wrong with that animal the first time it fell down. even me, that never touched a horse can tell this animal had problems. I think the owners are dumb asses (at least).
@Princessdee1987 watching the video I didn't see the snake bite her. and I would of done the same thing myself. their's something called hind site. and then you have something called seeing it as it happens. If that was me, that would of been a time when I watched my animal be weird, I would of called my wife and kid's out and watched her, until she started walking like she's drunk then I would of....... oh wait I would of walked up and took a closer look. he did that. forgot.
@Princessdee1987 great idea take your bad day out on someone else. makes sense to me. you probably scream and yell at burger king employees for fuckin up your order too. its just too bad that your the only one who ends up lookin stupid
@Princessdee1987 Do some reading people. Uploader clearly stated they didn't know the horse had been bitten. Horses play a lot and only right at the end did the horses front legs actually wobble and she stumbled, that was the only sign she was really in trouble, the other movements they make all the time when playing. Glad to hear the horse made it. f'n snakes - I hate em. Keep lots of cats around - sure, now and again you lose a cat but most times they kick a snakes arse.
@MrMaveri shut up nobody was talkin to you and plus you do some reading my last on said i was already kinda mad and i just let out me emotions so shut up get a ife and leave my life alone lowlife
@Princessdee1987 I wrote a reply but deleted it because if i left it i would be as abuse as you were which I think would bring me down to your level. I've owned horse btw and trained race horses (a few - not many) and horses play but they don't stumble play - big difference. Instead of abusing people who try and point out why you should have picked up on this a bit quicker why don't you learn from other people's experience and say thank you? Or are you too immature to do that?
when people make comments like "brown snakes are not venomous" it is a lack of education on the particular subject. it is not that they made a mistake, or just got confused. a smart person, when they dont know anything about a particular subject, either asks questions, looks up info, or shuts their mouth. this is what these people should do. the intelligence level it takes to log on to youtube is not the same level as to identify a venomous species of snake. too bad logging on is not harder
if snake venom is a poison then answer why you can drink venom and have no ill effects. venom is a not poison, poison when taken into the digestive system kills. venom does not, venom is only dangerous when it enters the blood stream. that is fact. i know what i am talking about. I have been handling venomous snakes since i was a child. also i am well schooled in the study of reptiles.
Snake Venom is not poison. It's venom! You can drink snake venom and it will not harm you. Only when it's injected into the blood stream is it deadly.
@slapdogwillie not in Australia my American friend. the majority of snakes in Australia have neurotoxins (amongst other things) that travel through the lymphatic system and in the case of the brown snake can result in death within 5-15 min. it is the 3rd most venomous land snake in the world.
well, it was more likely to be a brown, based on time of year and the fact it was a dryer season - blacks normally are associated with a wet season - where she was bit in the paddock -was no where near a creek, so chances were - it was a brown.
Final confirmation was when the anti-venon worked - brown snake anti-venon - $500 - black snake $1200 - we couldn't afford the black
@fassifernit very impressive break down. In Canada we're fortunate enough not to have any extremely Venomous snakes (non that would kill a human at least). How's Lucy doing these days?
she's doing extremely well these days, infact I think she's in training for lead mare - her mum is current queen of the herd - and Lucy isn't far off her tail - the grass is so good at the moment you would swear she is pregnant ;)
THANKS for this video Fassifernit, as a horse owner i found it very informative,(yes i'm serious for the doubters) until 2:13 i only saw normal behavior i must say you were very quick to spot something was wrong obviously you watch your horses a lot and know their normal activities, Yes eastern browns are the second most deadly land snakes in the world, doubters just google it up. we have a lot in our area nasty agressive blasted things.
you can see it straight away. how the foal is acting strange. then it keeps wanting to lay down and is even looking uncomfortable on the ground. notice also how she wasn't holding her head up while she was laying down. Glad she was ok in the end.
Antivenom is created by injecting a small amount of the targeted venom into an animal such as a horse, sheep, goat, or rabbit; the subject animal will undergo an immune response to the venom, producing antibodies against the venom's active molecule which can then be harvested from the animal's blood and used to treat envenomation.
dude - you're a moron - use google - ring a vet, or even your local primary industries branch - heck even the local produce store in any rural area - snake venon is not viral - the process you describe is that which uses the immune system to respond to viral infection - snake venom is not a viral infection - it's a poison. Ask anyone who has taken LSD and had a flashback - poisons stay in your system a long time - I give an vet explanation of the reason they use horses below - read it ;)
@fassifernit If this is what your vet is telling you, I'd fire him. Horses are injected with INCREASINGLY stronger doses of venom until their blood is saturated with antibodies. These antibodies are used to treat other animals or people for envenimation. Organic poisons are nothing more than proteins, just like viruses and the body will respond to them JUST like viruses and only a Hill-fucking-Billy-Queensland vet would attest otherwise.
@fassifernit Snake venom is highly modified saliva that is produced by special glands of certain species of snakes. The gland which secretes the zootoxin is a modification of the parotid salivary gland of other vertebrates. Snake venom is a combination of many different proteins and enzymes. Many of these proteins are harmless to humans, but some are toxins.
Note that snake venoms are generally not dangerous when ingested, and are therefore not technically poisons
@fassifernit maybe you should take your own advice and google that shit. it says snake venom is not normally dangerous when ingested and therefore is not technically poison. right from google to wikipedia. moron
@fassifernit Snake venom is NOT poison. It's venom. There's a difference. Poison is either ingested via the digestive tract or absorbed through the skin. Venom is injected into the cardiovascular system through a bite, cut, or other open wound. You could drink snake venom or pour it on your skin and be perfectly fine provided you had no open wound or ulcer. It can only have a negative effect on you if it gets into your bloodstream. Anyway, glad to hear the horse made it out okay.
@luckyboykurt Your completely wrong kid.. it doesnt matter how big the animal it depends on how strong or what type of snake has a more powerful venom. The snake could've not been poisonous or maybe it was but since its a bigger animal the venom takes a longer time to actually attack the heart or whichever organ.
@luckyboykurt i correct my statement, they are NOT immune, just strong enough to take altered amounts of venom to create antibodies to it. Weasles however, are immune to MOST snake venom!
Smart horse washing the wound out with water. The other horse was trying to suck the venom out and keep it awake. What caused you to film at that time. Or do you have other vids of horses just horseing around.
Actually horses are effected by snake bite like all other animals, the horses they use to take anti venom from become far more susceptible to snake venom, it doesn't build resistance, it increases overall toxicity.
They use horses blood because they can inject a small enough amount into the larger animal to create the antibodies, but not kill the animal.
~ according to my Vet
btw - we just lost a cow to brown snake-not a good season :(
I am assuming that Brown Snake venom is not extremely potent on Horses. I am basing that off the fact that Lucy didnt die right away or at all for that matter. I am semi familiar with snakes and thought brown snakes were pretty deadly.
I do know in the states they use horses for the anti-venom that is produced, or they used to use horses. I am not sure if they still do.
@SerbianEagleCCCC first u cant have your own head up your arse itss virtually impossible unless u get your head amputated and opened your ass then shoved it in there but then u will be dead
how could u not notice that snake what retard was filming this shit haha hilarious and ppl are all like im the horse expert its rediculous just stop commenting. the situation has been handled lmao
would also like to point out that the people who are saying they didn't react fast enoughand were ignoring the "signals" Horses act like that all the time. I live next to a horse field and every one of them has a different character. they tend to use their legs like that a lot, especially when young. it can be quite difficult to notice a snake bite and other problems like it and well done on taking a closer look and keeping a good eye on them.
i went out to have a look - she gets up and down all the time - but just a little too much that day - we couldn't find the bite marks - but I figured it was either brown or black snake or twisted gut - when the vet got there we had to work our what to do - as it had been a dry season I thought it was more likely to be a brown snake - luckily I was right ;)
i didn`t know brown snake where venomous, but then again we do not have them where i live only cotton mouth`s ,copperheads, and rattlesnake here are venomous....come to think of it i don`t think we even have a brown colored snake here at all....i love you tube i just traveled to Australia and didn`t know it LOL
Lol the common brown snake is one of the most venemous snakes in the world. It's given that name because it lives under people's houses in Australia. Don't give people wrong information.
our horses play in the water/ roll on the ground /with their head flat on the ground if they so choose......when the colt laid down over and over i started thinking it be colic a few times laying and rolling is normal for some but the colt really showed signs when the guy walked down there....good job noticing the problem
thanks waly110, your comments are appreciated - that foal now runs a sub-herd with-in our larger herd. Her mum is the main broody, but Lucy is now quite the princess her self ;)
whether the horse was standing or trying to lay down, you can see that it's off balance. that along should clue someone there was something wrong; not to mention, this was coupled with blood spewing out of the horse and the frantic kicking in the water.
people horses lay on the ground all the time for short periods time it would have taken a little bit of time to have the venom take effect one because it is a large animal much more than a human and a horse would not have the same exact reaction as a human just thought id put that out there . . .
Try reading the blurb - if you know horses, you'll know there was nothing to indicate she had been bitten till about the time we turned off the camer - vet was there with an injection with-in an hour of being bitten - any other day of the week - we would have at work for another 6 hours.
lol at Tony Greig carrying on in the background. "Right, so McGrath, going to continue his battle with Pietersen, who has reeeeallly got stuck into him"
well, our hope is that if a horse owner sees it and notices similar behaviour, they might put 2+2 together, contrary to many comments, most of the activities up untill the last 20 seconds, are fairly normal... lying, rolling, up then down, horses often do that stuff (at least every horse I've every known does)... so the hope is that this footage, which was accidentally shot, may help save another horse....
Thanks for adding this. We live in an area with a lot of snakes, but have never had an incident. It's always good to see examples of horses both playing and acting off. Hope your filly is feeling much better!
I believe these horses were being videotaped because their folks love them and love spending time with them.
And as they were focussed on the animals they realized something was wrong with Lucy. If Lucy had been bitten at any other time while not being supervised so closely, she would have endured a painful death. But she lived cause she was loved by these folks. And they surely spend lots of money for a horse amount of antivenom. Be fair to these people. They would have saved you, too.
thanks for your comments - true - that day cost nearly $1000 for vet and antivenom - but I'm glad we were there to do something ;) I wonder how many of these people making ignorant comments, live in the bush or have had 'positive' relationships with their animals.
Hi LyleMod, you don't hang around horses much.. if your horse don't lay down - wtf are you doing to them... every one of 7 horses are able to lie and roll at will... except for a few of the old ones.. who are a little too sore too. btw.. with electric fences I always put my horse before my ego - you should try the same ;)
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
You guys are CRUEL you have 4 horses and yet you know nothing about them! 1) Horses NEVER LAY DOWN ESPECIALLY WITH THEIR HEAD DOWN she is faint and cant stand i.e. sick 2) that so called cooling down and attempt to roll over is a muscle spasm <<< 3) cant you see the fuking thing is struggling to walk and stoped half way from going near the water at 2:40 she backed up /SCARED LEARN TO READ YOU'RE HORSE IF IT EVER LAYS DOWN CALL THE VET ASAP DONT LAUGH AND RECORD IT OR NEXT TIME YOU WONT HAVE IT
horses lay down, and if you havent seen one roll on the ground in a playful way, taking a "dirt bath", then you obviously havent been around many horses.
they werent laughing at the horse falling, they were laughing at the horse trying to get the foal to play. get your head out of your ass.
Bloody snake. I hate snakes I wish we could get rid of them all.
I recently recorded on video a giant snake I saw near Steve Irwin's zoo. I've been everywhere and I had never seen a snake so large, it was so long and fat! I wonder if it had escaped from the zoo itself. I will eventually put the clip on my channel.
That one horse knew something was up but the other horses ignored the whole thing

I'm not going to pretend to understand everything about horses, but from the video, Lucy actually displayed pretty typical behavior (to my knowledge). I think you did a fine job of noting her slight abnormalities and using Joe's hints of "worry" to discover the snake bite. Good work.

@angelmouse432 - ah yes - another equine professional - if you don't recognize these activities as normal horse behaviour untill the end of the vid it proves your ignorance, not your stupidity - foals lie down so often, roll all that sort of thing - most people I know who have horses, and live closely with them, use the 'dead foal' routine.
you should spend some time with them - they are amazing animals - not arseholes like humans ;)

@fassifernit I actually am an equine professional. Good quesswork on your part. It was clear from fairly early on that she wasn't right, why else would you be videoing her?
angelmouse432 10 months ago
@angelmouse432 - only reason we were videoing was because I was showing my wife how to use the camera - you aren't an equine professional or that familiar with horses - striking a trough, yep - pretty common, laying down, getting up, pretty common - so much so -most people I know make the joke 'dead foal'.
Around the 4th minute it's pretty obvious something is up more than normal. And as someone pointed out previous - symptoms could have been a gut ache as well - but we know our animals well :)
fassifernit 10 months ago
@fassifernit Well i am, but i don't have to prove that to you. Think what you like, i don't really care. Odd we never hear you instructing your wife on how to use the camera isn't it.
She shows colic symptoms quite early on, but sadly i can't educate everyone about distress signals from horses.

@lunafringe10 no.. up until the 3rd ish minute - all activity is quite normal for a horse.. foals get up and down all the time - and striking a trough is very very normal for horses in a hot climate - water cools their legs..

Princessdee1987 the horse's behaviour isnt that strange... it is not "almost dying" it is rolling around a bit and is a bit restless... looks more like it has colic than snake bite. They called the vet. Horse lives. The end. Dont judge other people, you arent a vet. BTW... I am. STFU.
nkeene24 1 year ago
Well, if one was completely oblivious to the fact that something was wrong with the way she acted, one might be able to mistake her first fall as being playful or something. But the second time she fell should have been like a slap in the face. It was obvious that something was wrong, and instead of video taping and watching her hurt, you should have set the camera down and gone to check her out first. While horses are playful, none keep stumbling and falling unless they are sick or afflicted.

At 0.59 - 1.04 you can see her slightly stumble with her leg and continues when she staggers to the trough? And again...her balance looks odd. At 3.49 it appears that she may try to indicate where the wound is as she licks or tries to on her her left side - near her back leg? The other horse knows straight away and tries to keep her up on her feet. It's bite is a sure fire way to say to you "Something's wrong". Good she's okay, but even I could tell within the first minute.

if snake venom is a poison then answer why you can drink venom and have no ill effects. venom is a not poison, poison when taken into the digestive system kills. venom does not, venom is only dangerous when it enters the blood stream. that is fact. i know what i am talking about. I have been handling venomous snakes since i was a child. also i am well schooled in the study of reptiles.

trainmaster500 1 year ago
well, it was more likely to be a brown, based on time of year and the fact it was a dryer season - blacks normally are associated with a wet season - where she was bit in the paddock -was no where near a creek, so chances were - it was a brown.
Final confirmation was when the anti-venon worked - brown snake anti-venon - $500 - black snake $1200 - we couldn't afford the black
so we went on a hunch

luckyboykurt 1 year ago
Antivenom is created by injecting a small amount of the targeted venom into an animal such as a horse, sheep, goat, or rabbit; the subject animal will undergo an immune response to the venom, producing antibodies against the venom's active molecule which can then be harvested from the animal's blood and used to treat envenomation.

At least,I think so...... pretty sure, final answer? ...FINAL ANSWER....LOL
luckyboykurt 1 year ago
It's not that it's too big it's that it's immune to MOST snake venom and that's why horses are used to make antivenin
luckyboykurt 1 year ago
dude - you're a moron - use google - ring a vet, or even your local primary industries branch - heck even the local produce store in any rural area - snake venon is not viral - the process you describe is that which uses the immune system to respond to viral infection - snake venom is not a viral infection - it's a poison. Ask anyone who has taken LSD and had a flashback - poisons stay in your system a long time - I give an vet explanation of the reason they use horses below - read it ;)
fassifernit 1 year ago 4
@fassifernit If this is what your vet is telling you, I'd fire him. Horses are injected with INCREASINGLY stronger doses of venom until their blood is saturated with antibodies. These antibodies are used to treat other animals or people for envenimation. Organic poisons are nothing more than proteins, just like viruses and the body will respond to them JUST like viruses and only a Hill-fucking-Billy-Queensland vet would attest otherwise.
Google it yourself before calling people morons.
texNoz 1 year ago
@fassifernit Snake venom is highly modified saliva that is produced by special glands of certain species of snakes. The gland which secretes the zootoxin is a modification of the parotid salivary gland of other vertebrates. Snake venom is a combination of many different proteins and enzymes. Many of these proteins are harmless to humans, but some are toxins.
Note that snake venoms are generally not dangerous when ingested, and are therefore not technically poisons

tac94540 1 year ago
@fassifernit Snake venom is NOT poison. It's venom. There's a difference. Poison is either ingested via the digestive tract or absorbed through the skin. Venom is injected into the cardiovascular system through a bite, cut, or other open wound. You could drink snake venom or pour it on your skin and be perfectly fine provided you had no open wound or ulcer. It can only have a negative effect on you if it gets into your bloodstream. Anyway, glad to hear the horse made it out okay.
SpringfieldGarand 1 year ago
@luckyboykurt Your completely wrong kid.. it doesnt matter how big the animal it depends on how strong or what type of snake has a more powerful venom. The snake could've not been poisonous or maybe it was but since its a bigger animal the venom takes a longer time to actually attack the heart or whichever organ.

As I understand it, snake vemon doesn't affect Horses of all animals. in fact, it is the Horse's blood that is used to make up anti-vemon.
MrEbonyman 2 years ago
Actually horses are effected by snake bite like all other animals, the horses they use to take anti venom from become far more susceptible to snake venom, it doesn't build resistance, it increases overall toxicity.
They use horses blood because they can inject a small enough amount into the larger animal to create the antibodies, but not kill the animal.

I believe these horses were being videotaped because their folks love them and love spending time with them.
And as they were focussed on the animals they realized something was wrong with Lucy. If Lucy had been bitten at any other time while not being supervised so closely, she would have endured a painful death. But she lived cause she was loved by these folks. And they surely spend lots of money for a horse amount of antivenom. Be fair to these people. They would have saved you, too.
