Hats off to Zac and others who collect venom to produce anti venom. These guys _literally_ put their lives at risk every single working day to be able to produce life saving anti venom. Thank you!

See, I love how they give so much Information about the snakes and their venom. It's nice because there's no dramatic music or anything.

The death adder is literally the fastest striking snake on the planet, along with the puff adders. They can strike a balloon twice before it pops. Absolutely crazy

God bless you fellas. The world needs more mates like you two.

I'm not sure entirely why, but Zac looks like he's the nicest dude ever. I would love to be friends with him

Hi there. Robert here. Wau for a video. I like snakes, unfortunaly we dont have snakes in the natur here in Denmark where i live. We have one viper, not much venomus. I cant wait to se you other videos. Be safe.

Hey guys thanks for all you do. I have always loved the reptile park, I have been visiting since it was in Wyoming prior to the new park in somersby.. I have been involved in the feeding program for the snakes over the years in my trade and everyone here is the best there is at their game. I love to visit and bring my kids up as well now I'm older

Milking venomous snakes with Tim in the same room, Zac has nerves of Tungsten.

Love you guys. Takes balls the size of Texas to do what you guys do

Good on you guys! Videos like this need to be shown in schools across the country. Such incredible work what Zac and the team are doing, and unfortunately not many people are aware of what goes on behind the scenes to help save lives.

Thank you for the amazing but very very scary video. Stay safe and best wishes from Germany!

Thank you, Zac for being so brave. And thank you Tim for educating us! Now I know what to do if myself or a loved one gets bitten by a rattlesnake or a copper head which are local where I live, probably not as deadly as the one's in Australia, but still very dangerous!

@@christopherdale5243 they usually tell us in the US not to put pressure bandages on rattlesnake bites bc it will concentrate the cytotoxic/flesh-destroying venom. Australian snakes have such strongly neurotoxic venom that pressure bandages are required to stop the spread before getting to the hospital.

I really love these videos, thank you both for your bravery and I pray that you will both always be safe. Side note: Zac makes it look so easy! What a champ!

You guys are both amazing!

Tim, you may be in love with your snakes, you might be extremely knowledgeable but I rather not even be in the same room, I have quite a phobia. Good for you.

Thank you,for the presentation.

G'day Tim & Zac, 😲 Wow! You do an Awesome Job at ARP, I am not scared of snakes & will take any offer to hold a "Non Venomous' one, but I got shivers every time Zac got one out & then wiggled his finger 😬😬😬😬😬

Question: So Where does the anti-venom for Red-belly black snake come from? Great job Tim and Zac.

@bricklaya6337

I think tiger snake anti venom is what’s used

We’ve done medical evals. Where we have seen patients not be as bad when they’ve ran out of the woods on rattle snakes. We are thinking that maybe it’s diluting the venom and spreading it around The body out of limbs. But I wouldn’t try it on extreme neuro toxic venom or the top tier venoms. This was done on diamond backs and mostly rattle snake varieties. Which goes against what I was originally taught. But it’s like clock work. Everybody that has to travel on foot some distance to get help they don’t seem to have the severe symptoms like the stationary people. We are still looking at it and will in years to come.

Much respect.

They are beautiful animals

Good Tim

@davidcrowe2999

They’re both deadly snakes but the inland taipan is the most venomous. I’d give the deadliest title to the mamba because it lives in closer proximity to people thus more people get bit by mambas that along with their potent venom, aggressive nature and being probably the fastest snake on land to me makes them more deadly. The inland taipan inhabits areas not really inhabited by people.

I would love to know what the compounds or proteins in these venoms are made of . And would it be possible to replicate these various venoms in a laboratory instead of let's say milking particular species of snake to get the required amount of anti venom.

@boldandbrash6170

2 жыл бұрын

Probably but it wouldn't be the same. And why spend resources making artificial venon when snakes already make it?

Do those stats “strongest venom in the world” include sea snakes? Or only land ??

Would a tiger snake bite penetrate a 3mm wetsuit a person may be wearing?

Came across a massive king brown on the way to a beach picnic in the middle of the road I was too scared to get out the car but i didn’t want it to get run over so I started splashing it with my water bottle and it got mad but got off the road.

Why this man is so talkative 🤣 dude plz just let us watch what we want 🙂

Watching Mike Perry at South African Anti Venom plant is so interesting,I watch every video I see posted,and of here when I see them,nice and entertaining. I know repetition creates retention,but wish Zack would slow down,it is one little awkward moment of ''Awry'' ,when that one mis-step can happen..Like Mr Irwin,One Million Victories,but that one defeat is all that will be remembered.(Rip salute)........Slipping past beaker ,or snake reverse necks,or bites through bottom mouth or finger tangled moving so quickly.Mike Perry uses fixed beaker,and I'm guessing that is reason as he is missing a digit..Your necking SOP seemed safer than his.Bet if you both combined methods,could create safest SOP on earth for Harvesting.(Just observation from the cheap seats)lol. The floating beaker method probably great for the species that lock on to pump venom,like King Brown,Gaboon,Cobra's,to prevent broken fangs..Must be the reasoning..No expert here,just interested am I...Great Demo..

I was wondering too. I’m guessing the light adhesive Tim mentioned doesn’t work if a snake’s been on it before, so they have to keep replacing it. That’s my guess anyway.

It was my dream to have this job when I was a child.

Yeah getting bit by a s ven is not fun. Copped a tag from an eastern brown. It felt like one of my neohjnouts had shot me with a pellet gun, Looked up and about then down and saw mr hiss hiss. Bloody long lawn!. Called the ambos rright away and bandaged my leg up. Then (I know, stupid move) went out back and scruffed the snake, got him right behind the jaw. Please don't do this - it was a dumb move, you could get bitten again. I stuffed him into a pillow slip and tied a knot in the top. One eastern brown bagged and ready!. He got released a few days later. I needed 14 ampoules of antivenom!!

My daughter in law’s dog copped a bite from a Tiger snake last year. Very nasty experience.

It'd be a Good"Work for the Dole"program,it'd get lazy Kuntz looking for work,or milk some Dangerous Snakes.
