The Most Dangerous Snake Bites (Part 4)

Most snake bites happen NOT from stepping on snakes. But from people trying to kill snakes. If you are jabbing at a snake with something and miss you will pay the piper. And if bitten on an extremity like the toes or finger it could cost you that digit. Copperhead venom is hemolytic and destroys red blood cells and tissue. There is little blood flow in the extremities so the venom doesn’t filter out as well thus causing more damage to those areas * * * #explorepage #explore #copperhead #venom #g
