Their look frightens us! Cobra, mamba, viper, rattlesnake and many other venomous snakes send chill down our spine. Needless to say, their venom is deadly when injected! Love them or hate them, they always get our attention. Even though their venom can be deadly and kill a human, it may also help save lives! We already know that venomous snakes go through a milking process in which their venom is collected in a container and freeze dried. Their venom is later injected into an animal in small amounts. The animal then produces antibody to neutralize this venom. This antibody is later collected and finally prepped to be used by humans as antivenom. But other than making antivenom, snake's venom can help us in many other ways. If you were a scientist, how would you use snake venom in a modern and creative way to bring change in this world! Please give us your brief answer by writing your comments below. The person who answers this riddle most creatively will get $3!
