Hi, I read a lot of bibliography of FWC's venom, and I saw the symptoms that can cause are serious.
Besides I read that the venom is frequentely compared with WDB rattlesnake, and I'm wondering why (amount of venom, composition, hemotoxins, LD50...)
A bite from a Hydrodynastes gigas it can be as bad as a C. atrox venom, really?

Thanks in advance, and sorry for my bad english.
