Explorers: So evolution decided that snake should not chew and put the teaths backward. Its sound so foolish when someone says there is no creator. |

sod09:Pigs are not necessarily immune to snake bites. They have a thick layer of skin and adipose tissue which makes it a bit difficult for venom to go down the blood stream... Its a 50/50 thing. 1 Like |

No animal is immune to snake bites, but pigs have a thicker layer of skin than most animals. ... According to the findings, pig skin necrotized at the same rate of human skin when snake venom was injected. With that being said, a pig's reaction to a snake bite largely depends on the pig itself. . . . sod09: |

Tejiriseth:there's this small animal that feeds on snakes too Mongoose |
Re: Some Scary Facts We Probably Don't Know About Snakes. by Tejiriseth(m): 5:26am On Jan 26, 2019 |
Yeah. I know that animal.. "The mongoose's acetylcholine receptors render them resistant or immune to snake venom. ... And so, one of the snake's main ammunition, its venom is almost useless against a mongoose. The mongooses successfully dodge their strikes and kill them.". . . They also have thick skin... Thats why they dodge.. The snake can still harm them small . . . . sod09: |

Did you know there's an island off the coast of Brazil called Snake Island? It's so dangerous that Brazilian authorities don't even allow people to go to it unless there are special circumstances. The island is called Ilha da Queimada Grande, and it's home to what is thought to be one of the most dangerous and venomous snakes in the world. There are only about 2-4 thousand of these snakes in existence, and their venom is said to literally melt human skin. Source: https://happyserpent.com/snake-profile/golden-lancehead-viper/ |
