MILKING VENOMOUS SNAKES | AUSTRALIAN REPTILE PARK

[@hoptoit5910]

Hats off to Zac and others who collect venom to produce anti venom. These guys _literally_ put their lives at risk every single working day to be able to produce life saving anti venom. Thank you!

[@megaford2976]

See, I love how they give so much Information about the snakes and their venom. It's nice because there's no dramatic music or anything.

[@franksinbeans1755]

God bless you fellas. The world needs more mates like you two.

[@Snorl3y]

Good on you guys! Videos like this need to be shown in schools across the country. Such incredible work what Zac and the team are doing, and unfortunately not many people are aware of what goes on behind the scenes to help save lives.

[@rmmiller159]

I'm not sure entirely why, but Zac looks like he's the nicest dude ever. I would love to be friends with him

I worked with Zac and met Tim while working at the reptile park, both are very professional and top blokes 👌🏼

[@robertcarnot9015]

Hi there. Robert here. Wau for a video. I like snakes, unfortunaly we dont have snakes in the natur here in Denmark where i live. We have one viper, not much venomus. I cant wait to se you other videos. Be safe.

[@benmcleod2789]

Hey guys thanks for all you do. I have always loved the reptile park, I have been visiting since it was in Wyoming prior to the new park in somersby.. I have been involved in the feeding program for the snakes over the years in my trade and everyone here is the best there is at their game. I love to visit and bring my kids up as well now I'm older

[@wickandde]

I really love these videos, thank you both for your bravery and I pray that you will both always be safe. Side note: Zac makes it look so easy! What a champ!

[@holdmybeer9193]

Thank you for the amazing but very very scary video. Stay safe and best wishes from Germany!

Thank you, Zac for being so brave. And thank you Tim for educating us! Now I know what to do if myself or a loved one gets bitten by a rattlesnake or a copper head which are local where I live, probably not as deadly as the one's in Australia, but still very dangerous!

[@christopherdale5243]

Oh the US Rattlesnake are something you don't mess with remain claim and try to stay as still where the bite has happened and apply a pressure bandages and call for medical treatment quickly the better.

[@cindys9491]

@@christopherdale5243 they usually tell us in the US not to put pressure bandages on rattlesnake bites bc it will concentrate the cytotoxic/flesh-destroying venom. Australian snakes have such strongly neurotoxic venom that pressure bandages are required to stop the spread before getting to the hospital.

I didn’t realize you supplied venom for the production of anti venom for the whole country! What a responsibility. How many venomous snakes do you keep at the zoo for this purpose?

[@zoraizelya3975]

Why this man is so talkative 🤣 dude plz just let us watch what we want 🙂

[@klk1900]

We’ve done medical evals. Where we have seen patients not be as bad when they’ve ran out of the woods on rattle snakes. We are thinking that maybe it’s diluting the venom and spreading it around The body out of limbs. But I wouldn’t try it on extreme neuro toxic venom or the top tier venoms. This was done on diamond backs and mostly rattle snake varieties. Which goes against what I was originally taught. But it’s like clock work. Everybody that has to travel on foot some distance to get help they don’t seem to have the severe symptoms like the stationary people. We are still looking at it and will in years to come.

[@chasingtail6568]

Do those stats “strongest venom in the world” include sea snakes? Or only land ??

[@MikeMercury]

how long does it take the snakke to replennish its venom

[@daniellecrosbie6697]

What is the world's deadliest snake? From Charlotte, 7 years old

[@shibbymiyah6614]

Black mamba...fast acting venom..nervous and aggressive snake

[@abdomawalla2012]

Inland taipan

[@davidcrowe2999]

They’re both deadly snakes but the inland taipan is the most venomous. I’d give the deadliest title to the mamba because it lives in closer proximity to people thus more people get bit by mambas that along with their potent venom, aggressive nature and being probably the fastest snake on land to me makes them more deadly. The inland taipan inhabits areas not really inhabited by people.

[@davidcrowe2999]

Oh the guy said the king brown was the 2nd longest venomous snake in the world. That’s not correct the black mamba is at 14ft only behind the king cobra

[@cameronbarnes4216]

It is debated between many snakes

Ive heard black mamba venom can potentially make new pain killers. Is this true?

[@aldenunion]

Tomorrow's super drug will come from Venom..Snake Island,the Golden Lance heads I think they are,are responsible for human blood pressure medication.All typed toxic animals from land and sea are being studied and I heard same thing on Non Narcotic pain management,only they are not quite there yet...India sure could use revenue from harvesting from free snakes..Hope soon, but they are learning more daily I have heard.

[@AlexUdrea15]

I can't understand the accent, what's the name of the snake from min 9? The small snake

[@desmondchew2152]

death adder

[@airzulu2733]

I would love to know what the compounds or proteins in these venoms are made of . And would it be possible to replicate these various venoms in a laboratory instead of let's say milking particular species of snake to get the required amount of anti venom.

[@hahajohngaming]

Probably but it wouldn't be the same. And why spend resources making artificial venon when snakes already make it?

[@KABrown-jp5eh]

Why did he say they don't milk Inland Taipans? I literally just watched the same place milk one!! 😕

[@christina7702]

They do thay so the sanke goes for the finger and they milk its venom

I was feeding my goats the other day and I saw my cat paw at the ground, so I walked over to see what it was. It was a copperhead, and I didn't know what to do because it's illegal to kill snakes where I live. My mamaw and papaw wasn't around me, so I got some big bricks and put it on its head. What should I do if that happens again?

[@ragavkumar7333]

Can anyone tell me why Zac was removing plastic everytime he milked a snake?

[@mauia88]

I was wondering too. I’m guessing the light adhesive Tim mentioned doesn’t work if a snake’s been on it before, so they have to keep replacing it. That’s my guess anyway.

Politely, I prefer just hearing ZAC explain what he's doing (in between the intense concentration required) ... were it me? Tim talking would distract me. (Sorry Tim, I know you're doing a great job ... and perhaps as an after dub, but during ..? Probably doesn't help). Huge appreciation to this organization.

[@dash8brj]

Yeah getting bit by a s ven is not fun. Copped a tag from an eastern brown. It felt like one of my neohjnouts had shot me with a pellet gun, Looked up and about then down and saw mr hiss hiss. Bloody long lawn!. Called the ambos rright away and bandaged my leg up. Then (I know, stupid move) went out back and scruffed the snake, got him right behind the jaw. Please don't do this - it was a dumb move, you could get bitten again. I stuffed him into a pillow slip and tied a knot in the top. One eastern brown bagged and ready!. He got released a few days later. I needed 14 ampoules of antivenom!!

[@jeffdarnell7942]

Where's the guy that about got bit in the face, that was on an American show with the New Age "Mr. Sting"?? And I'm from the US. People can tell me that the Top 100 Most Venomous Snakes on the Planet can ALL be from Australia. BUT... there's NO OTHER snake I'd least want to get bit by,than a Black Mamba. The BIGGEST thing about them is insuring you get Antivenin before around 20 mins...or you're dead as fu... I've know 100%, because a friend of mine was golfing on a Business trip, outside of Durbin, South Africa. He got hit TWICE around gis right shoulder blade..and thought he'd been scratched by a limb!! He'd gotten hit twice, and got antivenin in 15 mins, and gad already been gone 5 mins. He was literally DYING in front of their eyes in 7 friggin minutes. From what Im told about Mambas, is they hardly EVER dry bite. A venom guy in Florida, caught the corner of One fang...just enough to make him bleed, and he walked to the sink to kinda "Figure things out", if he'd been "Venomated", "invenomated", whatever, and he was feeling it in 30 seconds. That's ridiculous. It TRULY makes me wonder if the RATING system for how deadly venom is, is correct. For instance, there was a guy working at an area at Miami International Airport, that was apparently hit TWICE..by a Coastal Taipan...rhat 2as marked incorrectly in a container. SOMEHOW...Venom One had NO Coastal Taipan venom. It just happened to be on 9-11-2001, The Day we were attacked by those POS Terrorist, here in the States, and ALL planes were grounded. To shorten this, if I remember correctly, and im pretty sure I am...that guy got NO Antivenin for 12 hours...and survived. I've had others tell me, and Im positive as well, if he'd been hit with 2 Black Mamba bites .. he'd been dead. If they were breathing for him or not... his cardiovascular system would have been overdosed. I've had several people in the know, tell me that. Look into it, seriously. And please, don't take this as I don't appreciate, and UNDERSTAND just how DEALY those snakes are, and how serious your jobs are. Can you please tell me what the staring pay is formilking deadly Snakes?? I'm Not thinking about changing my Profession, I just REALLY hopeits ALOT. With that DANGER Pay Im REALLY hoping you guys SHOULD get.
