nams77:

majamajic:
This is normal lazy unharmful python

bros, if you have ever been close to a victim of its venom you will run away even from belt or sandal made from a gaboon viper's skin

So irritating

Your stew is already sleeping haha

Kingrefreshed:


Why are you two arguing blindly when you can just Google here and get answers

Una foolishness Don make me lost appetite for this food wey I wan eat

Aren't you just so stupid?So to point something out is to 'argue blindly'?

Your loss of appetite must be coming from the neurotic disorder you are suffering from.

Very beautiful design pattern but the teeth looks scary

crazygod:

They can be docile but they have the longest fangs and second highest dose of venom after the king cobra

The most deadly snake is Lance head viper

DisLifeSha:

The venom is in the salivary glands in the mouth

If the venom of they "unharmful python" enter your blood system, if you survive above 25 minutes, then God specially came down to save you.

docile,been bitten by that gaboon viper is one of 1000 ways to die,next time you see one say hello and Pat the head,let's see if you will not die before coming out from the bush.

Priapus69:


I thought the Boomslang was the most venomous?

Edit: I've searched it

Boomslang is venomous and kills a lot of people in Africa. The Gaboon viper is a terror too. It's an ambush predator that can lie for up to 9 hours under dead leaves and plantation waiting for prey to come by. It is sluggish and avoids humans though but would often strike in self defence when humans step close to it. It has the longest fangs of any snake in the world.

The inland taipan of Australia has the deadliest venom but it's a very shy snake that avoids biting and stays far away from human dwellings unlike its aggressive cousin, the coastal taipan.

The venom will literally "freeze" (coagulate) your blood in 5 seconds. Researchers are working on the venom to be able to use it in stopping massive bleeding in accident victims.

Kpomosauce:
op don baptise am inside pot in the name of the father

One bite with Vernon, the person is gone
There anti-vernon are also not always available(not sure about this)

Omo see meat

Rgade:

You can under rate a king Cobra but don't put the Mamba and "just" in the same sentence
The Mamba is aggressive but he certainly doesn't bluff.
The Mamba's venom kills in minutes bro,and they strike so many times they ensure that time is reduced even further

Mambas no dey bluff ooo

I've seen two different videos of king cobras in India giving a "dry" bite (venom-less threat) which it does by throwing its body forward and swinging its head at the larger threat (humans) but never opening its mouth but will bite when the threat doesn't move away.

Black mambas no get time. Na bite straight if u nor clear road for am.

"Docile" lol.

Maybe he meant sluggish.

Gaboon viper wey kill my friend uncle for Abia earlier this year at his farm.

LadySarah:


Would heat neutralize their venom?

The venom is a protein ( strange right?) There are proteins that are heat labile( susceptible to heat) while some proteins are not heat labile.

But in the long run, all proteins are denatured by high heat

This gaboon viper wey look like Tinubu

Hndrrxxx:
So why do doctors advice people to avoid contact with it's body bones
