    Grandpa's information may not be accurate, but I enjoyed listening to his experiences. He might not have formal education, but I am sure experientially he could teach any scholar a thing or two.

    It's so disgusting that the comments show how ignorant some of you are. On another note you can correct someone without being smug about it.

      true... we see now that some humans are also very poisonous.

    We respect Pop's bush experience and know how etc,but he has most of his info wrong snakes that he's calling venomous/poisonous (Cascabel) are not and snakes that are venomous (Zanana) he's saying they're not,and the Balsain isnt the Bushmaster that's the Zanana,this sorta misinformation isn't helping anyone and can actually be dangerous. ..We have 4 very venomous snakes in T&T..and one or two very mild ones,the following are the 4 very venomous ones:
    Mapipere Balsain /Bothrops Athrox
    Mapipere Zanana/ Lachesis muta
    Small Coral/Micrurus circinalis
    Large Coral/ Micrurus Lemnicatus
