Recent reports of a world shortage of anti-venom have drawn attention to the dangers of snake bite. Bites are particularly hazardous in rural areas of developing countries where many people work in the fields, often without shoes to protect their feet and ankles. Although most of the world’s 3,000 or more snake species are not venomous, several hundred species are. Among them is the Australian brown snake. Judged to be the world’s second most venomous land snake after the Black Mamba, it thrives in the populous eastern side of Australia.
