I could paint my Shaft (type of snake women like) the same color. When it is aroused it will either ooze or spit out venom-like white liquids determining on how much it is handled. These type of snake-like Shaft can be fatal if it is infected, other than that it preys on human females, causing the stomach to blow up slowly for 9 months straight until an organ is pulled out. 1 or 2% of these snake prefers men hosts (I still don't understand why). Shafts are warm blooded snakes.
I did not know that coral snakes had fangs.I was always told that they could not inject venom.They had to bite between the fingers and break the skin so that the venom could enter the blood stream,through there saliva.
@ojatro That's not necessarily true. My dogs catch at least four corals a week. Not King or Milk snakes, good old Corals. I'm in east Texas so that might be why. Tonight they brought one inside and I grabbed it by it's tail before it could scuttle under the sofa. What luck ehh? Anyhoos, they're pretty common, not as rare or reclusive as you say.
I live in East Delray Beach, Florida. I have seen 6 Coral Snakes in 15 years in my backyard. My dog attacked one this past Sunday, and thank God it didn't bite her. She even had it flinging in her mouth from side to side. By the time I called the vet and went back outside, it was gone! I wonder why SOOOOO many Coral Snakes are found here in Delray Beach, FL. I have heard from alot of people here, that they have seen them, too. Weird!
@yekshemesh4alig -- red ON black venom lack-- not, red AND black...ON is the key of knowing the diffrence... venomous and nonvenomous snakes have - red AND black...
How is it that the venom of elapids is so much more toxic than the venom of vipers? Is it because they have smaller fangs and can't control their venom output, so they need their venom to do the same job as the viper's, but with less output?
@AtarahDerek Every snake can control its venom output, Even baby's. For instance when a snake bites a person it does not use much venom or no venom at all in some cases, Because they would rather save it for a meal. The simple reason is the type of venom. The venom can differ in ways of attacking the system such as attacking the nerve system, Deteriorating tissue, Or more of a cardiac targeted venom. LD50 readings are what you should look up for venom.
Most intelligent people realize that he means the lower 48 and not an island. So i hope your comment made you feel smart because to everyone else you look like a jackass.
surely other animals realise that there is a huge difference between coral snakes and the non poisonous immitation snakes?...if not, then they are stupid and diserve to get eaten
stepped on one barefoot when i was a kid in orlando ( late sixtys) when it was a much smaller town. the whole east side of town was totaly infested with them.
minor correction; most venemous snake in US- yes, dealiest in US-no. These snakes have to chew their venom in b/c their fangs are so short therefore invenomations by this snake are rare compared to pit vipers (rattlers, cottonmouths, and copperheads).
yesterday the wind flipped by hammock over and when I bent down to grab the frame, the damn coral snake was right there waiting. I brought the dog in and got my shovel. I wanted to keep him alive but there are too many kids around. Now he is in my freezer, bye bye mr snake.
There was a slight mistake, the narrator says that the Eastern Coral Snake (Micrurus fulvius) is the only coral snake in North America. Actually, there is another species, the Texas Coral Snake (Micrurus tener). Nevertheless, they are fascinating reptiles.
Its actualy not a myth, they have triangular heads because thats where there venon glans are, yea the python family has triangular shaped heads, but its a defense like a mimic, e.g.: Milk ; Coral. Also the snakes that dont have triangular shaped heads (venemous) im pretty sure there venom glan is stored somewhere els, also if there eye pupil is verticle they are venemous, if its round, there not venemous.
