Bite pics

Do any of the Hot keepers have any bite pictures,prefer viper bites,anything that will discourage people from buying them.
I know some people interested in purchasing some Hots,that have no previous experience,handling,even non venomous,I asked them if they had a death wish,,as i have owned venomous for years,I would not recomend a Hot to just anyone,as mistakes can be fatal...
Thanks Mike

Take a look on www.tongs.com There are quite a few bite pics on there...... They are what to expect from most viper envenomations.....

Thanks Gregg thats what i was looking for.Some people just dont get the reality of a bite untill they see it..Some of those are pretty disturbing...
I hope this makes people think before they buy.

God lord.....those bite photos just solidified my choice to never own venemous snakes. Personally I cannot imagine being able to keep my nerves under control knowing I could be facing an injury like that. Wow.

And thats why I would never own a hot
There is a bite on there where the guys hands are all black bubbles, what snake would have caused that?

That bite is the result of a hemotoxic or cytotoxic bite....... Most likely a rattlesnake of some sort.......

If you're talking about this bite, it was from a WDB. (C. atrox)

Yeah, it is not too often at all that someone would loose an entire hand due to a rattlesnake bite but fingers are fair game......
