tiger snake bite ... effects of ..., page-6

from what Ive heard these sorts of posions effect the lymphatic system, which functions through body movement.

That is why immmobilising the limb stops the poisoning from effecting the body.

You are better off staying where you are, very still, having told people where you have gone.

What ever you do, do not drive like a maniac to get help (a la that stupic car add... guaranteed to kill you).

I heard a story bout a guy who spent two days under a tree waiting for people to come to him after suffering a snake bite.



I also heard said that Australia has 11 of the Top 10 poisonous creatures in the world. I wouldnt be surprised.
