Terciopelo Viper
The Terciopelo Viper is a neotropical rainforest viper that grows up to 8 feet long and has a head that is 4 inches wide. It is typically found in Central America’s neotropical rainforest. Furthermore, these slimy creatures are responsible for the majority of snakebites throughout Central America. Unless we forget, their venom contains hemotoxins, which, if not treated, can result in death. So, how about a health insurance coverage upgrade?
Many-banded Krait
Right now, you’d think that snakebites would be covered by health insurance, but that seems unlikely. The multi-banded Krait, also known as the Taiwanese krait or the Chinese krait, can be found in Central and Southern China as well as Southeast Asia. All of these names, however, do not excuse the fact that this snake is extremely dangerous. The mortality rate ranges from 25–35 percent to 70–100 percent when bites are left untreated. Oh, that’s not much help, yikes.
