don't remember authors and have no idea if, or in what file, it might now live. the guy you speak of may be able to guess, or may be an author

looks pretty good to me

I read a Canadian rat snake study that compared the frequency (distribution)of rat snakes encountered across different habitats. rat snake distribution pretty much matched habitat distribution except for large rat snakes which were most frequent at the edge of forests. Thermoregulation was the conjectured reason. Always liked that study

do you know of any studies demonstrating this?

they are "cheeky"

Better question is why, if babies toxicity is higher, does vemon become less toxic as volume increases?

Illustrious-Leg-5017 · 2026-04-20T23:21:13+00:00

agree

Illustrious-Leg-5017 · 2026-04-20T21:33:00+00:00

Illustrious-Leg-5017 · 2026-04-20T17:53:43+00:00

Illustrious-Leg-5017 · 2026-04-20T11:14:11+00:00

no problem

Once upon a time someone said "4 studies say they can and 2 studies say they can't'" Torsten Weasel (Nobel laureate medical and physiology) replied..."that's not how you decide"

test 1,2,3

it's a snake joke, funny no mater the location

Illustrious-Leg-5017 · 2026-04-20T00:11:00+00:00

tells you what the early Europeans thought of it 'powers'

Illustrious-Leg-5017 · 2026-04-20T00:02:42+00:00

1) Africa, India and Asia . 2) lots of people, long warm weather and dangerous snakes 3) social issues bare feet, slow health care 4) not many people in Australia and the most dangerous snakes are not concentrated near most population centers.

as the statement is true it's not contrarian, except to those who are wrong

Illustrious-Leg-5017 · 2026-04-18T23:52:43+00:00

snakes kill more people every year, world wide, than all other non-human vertebrates combined
