venom glands...
just been reading the thread about venomoids and someone said about meeting a 21year old cobra who had her venom glands removed (correct me if thats not what was said) n i have always been told that if a venomous snake has its venom glands removed they would just grow back?
is that wrong or does it depend on the snake? Last edited by Jade01; 30-09-2007 at 02:28 PM..

I think Yes for cobra, but not sure for other venomies.
Cobra charmers remove their cobra's venom glands. I have met cobra charmers in Tokyo once and I had an oppotunity to talk with them. They told me cobra will never produce its venom after the removing operation. They also take off the fangs of the cobra. ewww

They did force feeding snake on their cobra. No need fangs for them. The force feeding was amazingly fast! Obviously that way was very stressful for the cobra. The cobra is NOT their pets, only for bussiness things. They had over 10 cobras then.

Their venom gland is taken with the fangs in India. But the fangs moult again and again. If the cobra's venom gland and the nerves have been removed off, they become non-venomies forever. Anyway King cobra is decreasing from this planet rapidly.. That's sad, isn't it? The King cobra don't appear in the city, they live in the quiet area in the wild. They don't attack human normaly.
