  6. 🐍💉 Tim Friede spent nearly 20 years gradually immunizing himself against #venom from over a dozen deadly #snakes, including #cobras and black #mambas.

    Scientists used #antibodies from his blood to create an experimental #antivenom that protected #mice from 13 types of snake venom. The work could lead to a single broad-spectrum antivenom.

  9. King Cobra regurgitating a rat snake it had recently fed on

    This king cobra was found in the midst of a well populated village and was promptly rescued by a team of professional snake handlers who afterwards safely released the snake into a nearby forested area away from any habitation. When threatened or stressed after immediately consuming a large meal, reptiles, particularly snakes will sometimes regurgitate the contents in their stomachs to lighten themselves to be able to make a quick getaway or defend themselves. King cobras are ophiophagous, with their diet consisting mainly of other snake species including several nonvenomous and venomous snake species, including other king cobras. This one was in the process of regurgitating a ratsnake that it had consumed.

    PS. This is for educational purposes only. I cannot stress enough on the fact that you must never attempt to handle wildlife or try to relocate a snake (especially venomous ones) by yourself unless you are a trained professional or rescuer with proper equipment and training to deal with them, as not only is it very stupid and dangerous for both yourself and for the animal involved but it can very well result in grevious injury or death for the people around and for the snake.

  11. "Many cobras have tissue-damaging venoms that can’t be treated with current antivenoms. We have discovered that cheap, readily available blood-thinning medications can be repurposed as antidotes for these venoms."

    (1) Eerst op #oefening in #verweggistan, want ze moeten in de leer. Ergens waar het lekker koud is, want dan heeft zo'n #bivakmuts ook zijn waarde. 😂
    En dan zo'n brul #sergeant of #officier erbij, die zegt: vandaag oefenen we #cobras afsteken met handschoenen aan. Ik zie de schrik al in hun ogen.

    Zelf ooit zo'n dag gehad, dat we handgranaten moesten leren gooien. Dan wordt je ineens héél voorzichtig met zo'n ding.

    So, big thanks to everyone who has followed, liked and boosted my posts! Here are some gold cakes, coffee and celebration cape cobras as my way of thanking everyone!

    Fact: Cape #cobras are highly venomous and found in South Africa. #snakes #gold #cake #coffee #wildlife #nature

  16. Given I am encountering many new people here on #Mastodon, I'm planning 2 copy over threads from bird.site that helps #introduce folks to my (recent) work. Here is the first one based on an article I #published in 2021.

    I am very happy to report the #publication of my paper on #parthenogenesis in #cobras with @[email protected], S. Smalbrugge, @[email protected], @[email protected], T. Castoe, G. Schuett, &
    @[email protected] is now available from @[email protected]: doi.org/10.1038/s41598-021-863. Thanks to all co-authors! 1/5
