https://www.nairaland.com/6923837/first-time-killing-eating-snake) To be candid, it was my first of eating snake and I thought I will die but guess what ? I woke up very healthy and even stronger with nourishing skin.

Well after my Junior brother finished preparing the snake meat I begged him to list the Measures which he just did and I thought it wise to share it to my fellow Nairalanders.

Preparing snake especially poisonous ones like Puff Addy required skills else you may end up poisoning your self lol...

Firstly, when hunting for snake like Puff Addy, target the head and avoid the tail from touching u.

Secondly, after a successful hunting, cut off the head and the tails before roasting it. The poisonous venom of Puff Addy is in the head and the tails, if you didn't cut it off the venom may spill to the body and you may end up getting yourself killed.

Thirdly, it is very pertinent to roast the snake before cutting it open because if it is pregnant the little ones may bite you, roasting it will kill whatever may be inside of it.
Fourthly, remove all the instestines although some people do eat it but it safe to remove it. Aftrr slicing it to your taste, use Maggie,salt,saint leaves, spicity, ginger and add enough pepper to it.

Finally, it is safe to prepare and eat snake if only you have done it before. Don't just assume you can do it, always seek for help of snake eaters if you cut any or you follow this guidelines I listed above. Snake meat is best when you eat with your family,friends and loved ones. I can't wait to eat another snake.

Venomous snake, coined from the word vein, is intravascular, meaning it must be carried via blood, so OP if you had accidentally injested the "poison" orally while eating your snake meat pepper soup, nothing for happen to you.

Hmmm.. I didn't know the tail was also poisonous.

So does that mean you can't touch the tail at all?

lalasticlala or which ever mod pushed this to front page is not serious at all. Who told you there is poison in the tail of a snake ?

1. You are wrong. There is no poison in the tail of any snake. Snakes are not scorpions that have stingers on their tails. Though snakes can use their tails to sort of pinch anyone holding their head. This is only if you are holding the snake while alive and the pinching is from dried scales at the end of the tail not like it is venomous at the tail it is just like a rat using its claws to scratch you it has no venom.

2. You are right about the babies biting. Even new born vipers can deliver deadly bites.

3. You did not remove the skin of the snake. Which is disgusting.

4. Poisonous animals are animals with toxins in their body delivered from touching or eating them. Venomous animals are those that sting or bite. Snakes are venomous not poisonous

Snake no get venom for tail. The venom sac is in the head.
The snake is venomous not poisonous. Snakes are generally venomous, though a few are both venomous and poisonous like the Asian Tiger snake.

It tastes like fish sef
