I steped on 1 the other day half an inch away from biting me

Lol, this is tame compared to eastern browns of Australia... Steve irwin even held on without snake tongs once, they aren't that bad...

@spiderpug thankfully we don't have the deadly browns here; those are the bad boys for sure. These Mojave Greens are no joke though! If you leave them be you will likely be just fine but people get bitten either because they try (foolishly) to handle them or the accidently step on them. Because they are often not very active during the day and blend into the desert it's easy to step on one if you are not being very careful. A bite from this will send you to the ER in a fight for your life!

i'd say and so would the CDC that the coral snake out of texas would be more venomous.and the most deadliest snake would one that bites you far from help..and the black mamba

[jojojr2]

not actually the deadliest snake in the world, but very close, the reason it is so deadly, is because of both hemo and nero toxins, plus there is no anti-venom.

[seanroberts86]

antivenom is antivenom it works with all bites even spider bites.invented in AU.

i live in riverside,Ca.i know a guy who has been bitten ridding ATV's out in the desert center area.got very sick but did not have any heart damage like AU snake cause...9 of the top ten most deadliest snakes are from there the one is from africa the black mamba(the most deaths are caused by the brown snake...)

Riverside huh! then you are most likely familiar with where I am from, out in Baker on the way to Vegas, but I seen folks die from a green bite, and others live through a sidewinder/rattle snake bite.
