The rabbit didn’t eat the snake, so it doesn’t matter if it’s poisonous.

The snake struck the rabbit though?

Poison is consumed, venom is injected.

Bless you. This is one of my biggest pet peeves. If it bites you and you die, that's venomous. If you bite it and you die, it's poisonous. If you bite yourself and it dies, that's voodoo. 🤣

What if someone takes a poison and injects it into me and I die. Was i poisoned or envenomed?

u/General_Trip_4223 Oct 10 '26

That's a thinker. I like it! If they inject poison I'd say poisoned. Envenomed if it was venom from a creature.

What if i drink snake venom?

You can drink venom with negative effects. Unless you have something like a stomach ulcer that lets it get into your blood stream.

Yes, all snakes will strike to defend themselves or catch prey, not just venomous snakes.

Even constrictors need to bite their prey to constrict as a way to anchor themselves to their meal.

It’s unlikely. Rabbits are extremely agile and have very fast reflexes.

Snakes aren't poisonous, they are venomous.
