Dr. Jenkins dives deep into the world of snake venom with
renowned expert Dr. Stephen Mackessy. They begin with Steve’s
early experiences working with venomous snakes, including a
memorable bite from a Southern Pacific Rattlesnake. The
conversation then explores the complexities of venom: what it is,
its composition, how it varies across a species’ range, and how
it changes throughout a snake's life. They also discuss the
remarkable medical and practical applications of snake venom,
including its role in developing life-saving medicines for
humans.
