This is a cool discussion...

The abdomenal injection is quite likely a fluke into the GI tract, where it would have a good chance of digestion prior to absorption. The chest though.... is the fastest mode of delivery next to IV. Perhaps the fang entered the chest, then through the diaphragm, and wallah, right into the stomach sitting right there Lucky mouse whether we guess how or not!
