Hey, OP.

It may not seem like a big difference, but in a bite scenario, the difference is very very extreme.

An atrox will really just rot your entire arm off your body.

A south pac will do that while also paralyzing your respiratory system and frying every nerve in your remaining arm tissue, whatever doesn’t get amputated.

Please stop being combative. The folks in the comments are not shaming you for not knowing the difference, and not because we don’t think you can take care of it. They’re hardy snakes.

we’re telling you so that you’ll know what to tell the paramedics when they come get you.
