Great photos + information on (Agkistrodon Piscivorus)
This book gives an accurate depiction of the snakes behavior and habits, very educational and uses layman terms making it easy to understand but yet full of scientific data. I rate this book a3 on a scale of 1 to 5 due tothe topic of its contents is dry to me. However this type of thing mayreally excite you. If you enjoy snakes I would recommend you check it outespecially if you live in the southeastern United States due to your closeproximity with this snake. ... Read more

Excerpt: Atractaspis bibronii is a venomous snake species found in Africa. No subspecies are currently recognized. Adults average 30-50 cm in length with a maximum of 70 cm. The color pattern consists of a purplish-brown, gray or black ground color, often with a purplish sheen. The belly can be brownish, white or pale in color, with a series of dark blotches. In specimens with a lighter belly coloration, this may also include two or three scale rows on the flanks. Found in southern Africa, from central Namibia, east to northern South Africa, north to southeastern DR Congo and Uganda, eastern Tanzania, coastal Kenya, and extreme southern coastal Somalia. Semi-desert, savannah and woodland. The venom is highly toxic, although it is produced in very small amounts. Bites are common in some areas. Often, snake handlers are bitten who are unaware that this species is able to bite while being held by the neck. Bite symptoms usually include mild to intense pain, local swelling with occasional blistering and necrosis and regional lymphadenopathy. No fatalities have been recorded. ...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=18254111 ... Read more

Product Description
Tissue damage in the liver and intestine of viper snake by nematodes and in the intestine of cobra by an acanthocephala is described here. These snakes were naturally infected with the parasites. Study of tissue sections revealed that the nematodes in the liver of viper cause severe damage including destruction of general architecture, atrophy and fibrosis. Lobular configuration of liver was disturbed, coagulated necrosis has occurred, melanomacrophage centers appeared. Bile duct hyperplasia with marked colangiohepatitis was observed. In the intestine the nematode caused fusion and destruction of mucosa with deformed villi, formation of granulomas in mucosa and submucosa was a common finding with large numbers of fibrous elements. The acanthocephala in the intestine of cobra caused severe tissue injury involving the whole thickness of its wall. Penetration of spiny proboscis caused severe tissue reactions, shrinkage of muscles, atrophy, necrosis and degeneration. This information is of value to research workers in this field, snake breeders and traders as well as to students and teachers of parasitology. ... Read more
