John:

I posted this in the first place as something that could be overlooked as a hazard to keepers. I've seen my Puff Adder and Death Adder eject fangs during a strike that I recovered because I saw where it went. So, I thought it was a plausable that someone could be stuck by an un-seen fang.

I too was wondering just how much venom a shed Bitis fang could hold and why so much A/V was required. I know the physician who treated Vinny, maybe some of the answers can be found with him.
