Hi, does anyone know of any good internet sights or books that have information on venom affects on the human anatomy and just information about it from a medical standpoint? thanks

Unfortunately(or maybe fortuantely), all tests are done on mice. So the "toxicity" of the venom is relative to its effects on mice, not humans.

www.kingsnake.com/toxinology/forums/index.php = VenomDoc Forums is a great website that is run by Dr. Bryan Fry and he does a pretty good job of talking on-on-one with its members. He is also a contributor to a lot of venom research going on nowadays.
