Do you have any idea how many life saving medicines are made from snake venom?
Many hot keepers are responsible for saving countless lives.
I thought there were venomous snake farms for that purpose. That’s not your average pet to me. YMMV.
No doubt. So how do private hot keepers save lives by keeping poisonous snakes? Sounds like just a hobby in most cases, and a dangerous one. I am not against dangerous hobbies if the danger is only to the individual participating. If I knew a neighbor was keeping cobras or other super poisonous snakes at his house that would be a major concern for me.
