A big reason why the antivenon for those snakes is rare is because one needs to keep a population of the snakes to produce them. If you don't need the snakes anymore, just the minimum amount countries have on hand for dealing with exotic fauna is enough to justify manufacturing them, and once you are manufacturing them, there's no reason not to do a larger batch and export some.
- krisoft 2y agoI don’t understand what you are saying. Part of the problem is that the african country is buying snake venom specific to snakes in india. This is a problem which is not going to be solved by someone manufacturing a larger batch of snake venom and exporting some. In fact it is caused by that practice at least in part.
- marcosdumay 2y agoNobody is going to make antivenom for their snakes is large amounts because doing that would risk introducing their snakes on the local fauna. But if you optimize it for full in-vitro manufacturing, then anybody will be able to make it. And there's plenty of demand for somebody to do it, because lots of countries want small amounts of it.
