[QUOTE="Fuzzball79, post: 31433, member: 3190"] Taken with a pinch of salt, as it's from Wikipedia: Apparently there has never been a human death recorded from this species, but the pain is very extensive and can cause severe swelling. They often distribute a dry bite though to preserve their venom for prey. From what someone has written in another forum "It's like a bee sting.... only x50!", lol. As someone told me when I said I wasn't confident enough yet: Just don't get bit, it's not hard! ;) [/QUOTE]
