[QUOTE="ABYZL, post: 184753, member: 34529"] It definitely pays off to have information regarding venom to hand and available to medical professionals that may not have that particular knowledge. While I have plenty of respect for medical professionals they are certainly not infallible. Too right about stitching skills, before I went back to psychology and music as career paths I was a fashion designer successfully but briefly. I must admit that I suture myself if I get a deep cut as I can do so with either hand far more neatly than most doctors lol. This is particularly useful in the current circumstances when no one really wants the risk of going to A&E (our version of ER) or putting pressure on staff who are already struggling. I sorted out a broken foot and a cracked wisdom tooth myself during the first lockdown at the peak of the epidemic for that reason. It's good to hear someone is educating people about local venomous snakes. the cobras and pit vipers sound amazing, I don't have any hot pets due to risk to other pets but they are beautiful. I've been able to meet cobras in the past and they have brilliant personalities. Fair play giving them a good home :) [/QUOTE]
