Lets see if we can get bit again by killing the snake! I thought that advice went the way of treating a bite with ice! There is no reason to kill the snake for identification purposes. All of the vipers in Texas receive the same antivenin and the coral is the only one that needs a different antivenin. Hard to beleive this spewed forth from a doctor. And I have some snake away to sell them along with snake oil. Unfortunatly animal Control doesn't surprise me. I'm allowed to say this since I was one for years and now I train them if they are willing.
