So, does the intense heat denature the protein components of venom or...?
Back in my adventure travel days, various guides packed a device called a
“Snake Doctor”. An electro-shock device that would pass high voltage through a snake bite, theoretically denaturing venom proteins. I guess it was like a really local Taser. Thankfully it was never tested on me, or anyone I know. I never requested a demonstration. It was a nice talisman to have tho.
