NATURE | The Venom Cure | Over in a Flash | PBS

http://www.pbs.org/wnet/nature/episodes/the-venom-cure/introduction/2063/?utm... To kill its prey, a coneshell extends a proboscis armed with a harpoonlike tip that injects a deadly venom. "The Venom Cure" illustrates how some of the animals we fear most may one day soon be helping us solve or alleviate a wide range of life-threatening medical problems.

"The Venom Cure" airs on PBS Sunday, June 6, 2010 at 8pm (check local listings) and is part of the 28th season of the Peabody and Emmy award-winning series produced by Thirteen in association with WNET.ORG for PBS. Major support provided by Canon U.S.A. Inc. For more information, visit: http://www.pbs.org/wnet/nature/episodes/the-venom-cure/introduction/2063/?utm...
