Trollmann Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 i have been seen many snakes lately. One of them was a malayan pit viper who is the most dangerous venomous snake in Thailand. It was about 50 cm from my foot but before i see it but i was lucky it did not bite me. I am wondering why most thai people dont kill the dangerous snakes that comes around the houses?

But the pit viper's venom is also nasty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
