Re: First aid kits on safari

Metwedi,

You may be right that there is an anti-venom covering several kinds of snakes as Jaco also mentions. But the way I've understood it is that it is at least preferable to use the specific type of anti-venom for it to be most effective. But maybe I'm wrong, as this is just from what I've been told. I know for sure that quite a few big plantations growing cocoa, coffee, and sugercane around the world actually have "snake rooms" filled with the various local snakes in glass cages on the premises. This is so that they can make the right (best?) kind of anti-venom when needed.
