There are more than 400 species comprising a very diverse group of snakes such as mambas, cobras, kraits, taipans, tiger snakes, death adders, sea snakes and coral snakes.

Brown snakes and taipans are active foragers that rapidly pursue their prey during the day.

Mtoxins even helped researchers reclassify the world’s most venomous snake from the inland taipan - which Frank keeps in Oshkosh - to the Malaysian blue coral snake.

The most toxic venom of any land snake is found in Australia's inland taipan.

Human health benefits have also been found in chemicals extracted from other deadly animals, including one of the world’s most venomous snakes, Australia’s taipan.
