I know my bite thread caused a great debate as well as some fueled baiting and fighting amongst us which was unfortunate. My intention is not, and has not been to cause a divide amongst us, but to bring forth information so that we can be more knowledgeable about the potential effects caused by bites from our beloved hognose.

While perusing another forum, I came across another link of a reported Western Hognose bite that had a similar reaction as has been reported in the past. Unfortunately, this report isn't specific like past reports have been, but it is descriptive enough as to what the person endured and it's got some pictures to back up the person's claim as to the effects of their bite.

Scroll down past the Mangrove Pit Viper video to read the story...
