Which as far as I know is not true . Also that a lot of people die from there bite. Visser and Carpenter reported in 1977 that there were two of seven clinical reports that suggested that envenomation was life threatening.Mallow, Ludwig and Nilson state in their book that they can not find a report of a fatal bite. Not to say there has not been fatal bites but if this snake was as much of a health risk to natives there would be more reports of fatal bites.More people are probably bitten by this snake in captivity then in the wild.
