Hi, I don't know if you are just doing North America but I see you have put the boomslang and the vine snake. There are many rear-fanged snakes in Africa, all venomous however varying in toxicity from mild ( yellow-bellied sand snake) to potentially life threatening (boomslang). Are you also doing Africa, South America ect?

We are trying to do a complete list from all of the world as this is for the BC. government who is currently compiling a list of soon to be banned reptiles. they will be banning all deadly species but by flooding them with the names of all species worldwide of rear fanged venomous i hope to be able to make it 100 % legal to still be able to own the non-lethal species. as when the government makes a list to them a venomous is venomous so to them there is no difference between a hognose and a mamba for regulatory purpose.
