Hello to all

[syeph8]

I don't know if anyone here has read this article but in 2005 Bryan Fry, of the Australian Venom Research Unit at the University of Melbourne and his team made some discovery's that you all may find to be helpful in your quest for knowledge on the subject of lizard venom and if I can say so myself WOW...

Venom research bad-mouths goannas - Science - Specials - smh.com.au

did not know beardies had some rattlesnake toxins! awesome coincidence.. in favour of, or contradictory to evolution? (whole new can of worms). still no closer to the CTS enigma

Not trying to distract from the thread but its proven scientific fact, they have venom glands and enlarged back teeth you notice them if a large adult tries to eat your finger, at first you think haha how pathetic a snake with smaller teeth than a python, then they start to pull and chew in with the back teeth and you think wow, if i was a frog this would be bad, worse than a bite from a 6 foot python but not as bad as a green ant :lol: go to www.venomdoc.com and search the forums the exact question has been addressed a few times by Dr Fry.

where abouts in melbourne do you hail from?

and cris mate, thanks for info. this basically answers the questions i have been asking for years now. i have never had a CTS "chew" on me though, usually only lasting a second, so this might explain why i havnt seen rear fangs or enlarged back teeth.. anyway.. can talk for hours about it but wont
