I can't believe that prisoner when to the hospital because she was bit by a Garter Snake!!!!
She described the bite as somthing along the lines ' The intitial pain shot up my arm, but it doesn't hurt much now'
Now I am wondering what pain from a non ven. Garter Snake would go up your arm, that is usually the venom going up or the nerves because of the venom.
Now, a garter may hurt, but I wouldn't say it like that :)

All in all, I thought it was a pretty good show. I think the concept behind it is awsome, especially in Florida. Florida is the biggest importer/exporter of herps, especially venomus snakes in the nation, if not the world..
There are many species that have escaped or released that have become viable breeding populations there... so it makes since.

: Had some pretty good stuff on there. Did you see the way that young guys arm swelled up from the rattlesnake bite?? Man that had to hurt!! Made my arm hurt just seeing it! Whew.

: : There is a show on at 9pm et that is called Venom one. About a snake bite unit in florida. May be worth watching.
