I'm sure most of you know of the purple puncture proof gloves used around medical wastes and needles and such. It's pretty obvious where I'm going with this, but what is the likelyhood that said gloves would prevent envenomation from small snakes and small-fanged snakes, such as the Texas Coral Snake, and small Copperheads and Cottonmouths, all of which I frequently encounter in the woods around Houston?



And I know, I know... The safest thing to do is to leave them be, but I prefer to take them out of neighborhoods and sub-divisions and apartment complexes, feed them one or two good meals, and then set them on their way in a less habitated area.
