I was reading a thread somewhere on here....someone was looking for a series of photos charting the effect of a Rattlesnake bite. I can't help with that, but the following series of pictures shows the development of a spider bite (Amourobious similis) over a 72 hour period. The effect of the haemotoxins/cytotoxins can clearly be seen. A Rattler (or other viper) bite would be similar, only on a massive scale! Yes, the finger is mine. And yes, I did die! Incidentally, Amourobious similis is considered harmless...tell that to my grieving widow!
