Komodo Venom and its Effects | Earth Unplugged

Venom is like EDTA hahsha

Super drugs and super bugs.

Eminem: Venom, Venom, Venom
Scientists: Let's make superdrugs

Montie wouldn’t be a close friend after seeing that

Yup. Superdrugs that big pharma will exploit a lot.

Monty is such a sweetie!

I've never seen a human pet a komodo dragon before

That this is just now known would be embarrassing to anyone that studied these animals for more than three or four days. No one looked in their mouth?

They should not feed Monte for a week and see how accommodating he is

they are a delicacy in some parts of the world. would definetly want try them

That dinosaur was so chill

“I’m forgiven. The last time we did this he ate my eyebrows off…”

Johnny Sins new promo.

Argued with this bald guy
Bald guy - come let me introduce you to my lawyer Mr Monty Python.. come

Monty seems nice but I I wouldn’t want to get the full Monty.

I'm amazed people are still espousing this theory. Toxicofera debate. It's been roundly disproven.

Morons are not even wearing gloves or other protective equipment. Peak of stupidity?

I take a blood thinner called Warfarin, aka Coumadin, which was used as a rat poison by farmers. Now it is used on rodents in the house. Anyway if there is something natural that thins the blood in this reptiles venom perhaps it is something that could be taken by someone like me. But who am I kidding it won't happen because the pharmaceutical companies will not allow it.

Clotting is an issue with tumors. Hope we make a breakthrough. But that patting comodo like a dog won't consol a treated person😂

monty : (sigh) shit that I had to do just to stay alive 😩

Big Pharma has entered the chat!

LEAD WILL CURE THAT!

Sooo it’s an anticoagulant ?

So komodo dragon venom could be synthesized to counter vaxxed blood clotting side effects?

Well read about his demise ar the bite of. Dragon

It looks like this komodo dragon loves been pampered ...😂

When I clicked on a video with a tube of blood in the thumbnail, I wasn't expecting the first thing I see to be a big ass lizard getting overwhelmingly wholesome good boi pets and visibly loving every second of it 😅

without gloves? naah. hazardous.

Venom? I think it's theie oral flora that causes damage. Bacterial endotoxins cause massive vascular collapse, reduced blood return and thus, shock & death. Then, they sniff down the weak or dead prey with ease. They lose this toxicity in captivity, right? I didn't know bout coagulopathies.

That is the most docile dragon I've ever seen.

Guy: "We have a bit of understanding" proceeds to pin Montey down to shove tube down his throat and force venom out of him

This research would make a good natural alternative for after surgeries as way to prevent blood clots which could lead to serious problems or death.

It's not actually venom! It's the powerful mixture of bacteria that's in their saliva that causes the prey to receive blood poisoning and bleed out at the same time. Once the bacteria enters the bloodstream and reaches the heart, the prey becomes weakened, bleeds out, and then gets consumed.

That could help people with trombophila

i've seen that guy on some other show and now it's bugging me

They eat things alive ..
Im animal lover but this one creature from hell I detest

Any update on this discovery

Outstanding amount of information in short time fantastic 👏

Love these BBC nature docs. The Brits stay calm, cool, and collected while in the company of Nature's most potentially dangerous creatures. This guy with the Komodo, Attenborough and the mountain gorilla.

Should waiting untill full moon..

Bill Burr just passed out.

Disgusting. This shit shouldn't show up in my recommended videos

Yeah well... Making antivenom would be also cool...

I needs me sum suppa drugs

There are snakes with anticoagulants in their venom. I'm kind of surprised it took this long.

This might be of help for those who took the experimental medicine for something I can't remember.

All you: these are wild animals. Komodo dragons are dangerous but not that aggressive when not hungry. They can be tamed a bit but they are not pets.

I thought Monty would be a Python?

You die by the bacteria in the saliva right
