I speak snake language: SssssssssActually not one of them is local. One lives in Virginia, another in Texas, one in California, and another in Minnesota. The closest is about 4 hours away. And I did my research first. I have spent 1000s of hours researching reptiles over the past 4-5 years and have talked to countless breeders and other reptile keepers alike. I have done tons of research on snake bites, most on venomous ones but non venomous as well.
And yes, that is a great source. But that is for venomous snake bites which results in necrosis of tissues making the risk of I infection highly likely. I have specifically been referring to non venomous North American colubrids.
