Hi guys, can anybody offer any advice on the consumption of or the use of a carcass for a bait that is suspected of having died from snake envenomation? My feeling is that it probably would be safe due to the denaturalising of the proteins? MM entry if damaged? Thank you.

Snake venoms are complex proteins and would be digested like any other protein. They are not systemically active by mouth.
