One of the fascinating aspects of venomous animals and their venoms is the simple observation that minute amounts of this specialized toxic material, venom, when injected into the body of prey or other animals, can cause intense pain, profound physiological changes, or death, often in a very short time. For many millennia and throughout most cultures, humans, from Cleopatra to Steve Irwin, have exploited the public awe of the creatures producing venoms, particularly the snakes, for a wide variety of purposes. We are simultaneously captivated and terrified by venomous snakes, in part for good reason. Envenomation by snakes was likely a significant daily concern for our primordial ancestors, and it remains a substantial health issue in many parts of the world; worldwide, it is estimated that nearly 3 million envenomations and 125,000 deaths occur annually. Morbidity and loss of functions, particularly following viper bites, add to this annual toll, making snakebite an important (though often overlooked) source of human suffering. But venomous animals are much more than just a source of danger to humans. These animals have a long evolutionary history, and their venoms have evolved as a means of assisting them to obtain sustenance, a basic requirement of all life.
