>>Thankyou for the very helpful information. I've handled dozens of the rufous beaked snakes at Glades Herp and not one has shown signs of aggression. When people started telling me that I was possibly hypersensitive to venom from my reaction to the mangrove I was beginning to worry. Now, with your advice, it doesn't seem like a big deal. Do you know the scientific name of the rufous beaked snakes?
