Abstract:
Snakes are one of the most diverse vertebrates on the globe, mostly prefer arid zones. Nepal harbors a high unrecognized reptilian diversity. Information on the diversity and distribution of snakes in the western Nepal are derived from relatively from old literatures. This study updated the diversity and distribution of snakes from the Kaski district based on rescuing activities, field survey and literature review. Altogether 40 species of snake from five families were recorded in the Kaski district. The family Colubridae (70%) had the highest species diversity followed by Elapidae (12.5%), Vi

Abstract:
The ancients thought that snakes had a unique power to kill because of their venomous nature. That is why serpents are worshiped as gods. The people who worship are called Nagas. Later they were portrayed as cobra-shaped men. The Aryans captured their place and the war arises. In mythology, epics and religions, the practice of combining snakes is found in many parts of the world. Later this worship is linked to religion. However, in Villibharata, countless Nagas have been destroyed. Over time, Naga worship and Nagas have been changing in various understandings with various religions and changi

Abstract:
The presented article provides information about the reptiles (Reptilia) of Karabakh and the ecological changes that occurred in their habitats during the occupation. 37 species of reptiles are distributed in Karabakh. Of the reptiles, there are 3 species of turtles (Testudines), 19 species of lizards (Sauria) and 15 species of snakes (Serpentes). In Karabakh, reptiles are mainly distributed in the semi-desert, dry-steppe, xerophyte-steppe, forest-shrub landscapes (200-1500 m above sea level) of the plains, low and medium highlands. Reptiles are rarely found in subalpine and alpine meadows of

Fellow citizens! I will not enlarge further on your national inconsistencies. The existence of slavery in this country brands your republicanism as a sham, your humanity as a base pretence, and your Christianity as a lie. It destroys your moral power abroad; it corrupts your politicians at home … it makes your name a hissing, and a byword to a mocking earth. It is the antagonistic force in your government…. It fetters your progress; it is the enemy of improvement, the deadly foe of education; it fosters pride; it breeds insolence; it promotes vice; it shelters crime; it is a curse to the earth

Abstract:
Cancer is characterized by the development of abnormal cells that divide in an uncontrolled way and may spread into other tissues where they may infiltrate and destroy normal body tissue. Several previous reports have described biochemical anti-tumorigenic properties of crude snake venom or its components, including their capability of inhibiting cell proliferation and promoting cell death. However, to the best of our knowledge, there is no work describing cancer cell proteomic changes following treatment with snake venoms. In this work we describe the quantitative changes in proteomics of MCF

In this survey the team visited 13 zonal or district hospitals, veterinary hospitals, and municipalities across the Terai and gathered a variety of informations. Epidemiological data on snakebite incidence was collected for 1996 & 1997 from all these hospitals. Information on treatment protocols for snakebite by medical staff, availability and cost to the patient of ASV, and awareness of the rural populations about first aid treatment for snakebite was gathered. Age & sexwise venomous snakebite cases were recorded in Nepal for the year 1996/1997. The case fatility rate is higher in chi

Abstract:
AbstractSnakebite envenoming is an important public health issue responsible for mortality and severe morbidity. Where mortality is mainly caused by venom toxins that induce cardiovascular disturbances, neurotoxicity, and acute kidney injury, morbidity is caused by toxins that directly or indirectly destroy cells and degrade the extracellular matrix. These are referred to as ‘tissue-damaging toxins’ and have previously been classified in various ways, most of which are based on the tissues being affected (e.g., cardiotoxins, myotoxins). This categorisation, however, is primarily phenomenologic

From ancient time whenever we face any problem, we came to nature for the solution. Our nature is self renewable, she has solution for every problem, but we have to find the right path to respond more quickly. This review is regarding chemical nature of snake venom and about different life saving drugs extracted from snake venom. Venoms were originated from non poisonous proteins, and with subsequent generations under evolution these proteins become mutated and modified multiple times to develop deadly poison. With every modification venom becomes enriched with new diverse group of compounds.

Abstract Acanthaster planci was virtually unknown by coral—reef scientists when Jack Barnes published a short paper in Australian Natural History entitled “The Crown of Thorns Starfish as a Destroyer of Coral.” 1 Barnes told of how he had come to know it. A medical doctor and naturalist, he had an interest in poisonous marine animals and he was well—known for alerting the public to the dangers of the extremely venomous “sea wasp” or box jellyfish. In the late 1950s, he had become curious about reports of the existence of a large, spiny “stinging” starfish in Queensland waters. But sightings of

Abstract:
Many active secretions produced by animals have been employed in the development of new drugs to treat diseases such as hypertension and cancer. Snake venom toxins contributed significantly to the treatment of many medical conditions. Snake venoms are the secretion of venomous snakes, which are synthesized and stored in specific venom glands. Many toxins from snake venom are investigated and formulated into drugs for the treatment of conditions such as cancer, hypertension, and thrombosis. Most of the venoms are complex mixture of a number of proteins, peptides, enzymes, toxins and non-protein

Abstract Large animals are dangerous and may attack unpredictably. They should be viewed at a safe distance in the company of an experienced ranger. Groups travelling alone should make noise and carry appropriate defences such as guns or pepper sprays. Store food away from campsites and avoid camping close to water. Animals with their young are particularly dangerous. Take local advice. Venomous animals are less obvious but cause many more fatalities among indigenous populations. Appropriate preventive behaviour and first aid is discussed. Specific antidotes (antivenoms) may be available, but,
