#12 Guidelines for the Use of Venomous Reptiles | Motion Picture Safety Bulletin

Venomous reptile bites may cause punctures, abrasion, cuts, and exposure to various venoms depending on the reptile species. Exposure to venom may cause a range of local, systemic, and life‑threatening reactions. The effects depend on the venom type (neurotoxic, hemotoxic, cytotoxic, myotoxic), the amount injected, and the individual’s physiology.
