NAME: "Expecteria Trouserius" (Trouser Snake) 
 
 
LOCATION: Throughout the world 
 
DESCRIPTION: One-eyed, with mushroom-shaped head (other types come 
with extra layers of skin). Varying from pink to black. Fang-less with a 
highly 
venomous spit (spit can reach distances up to 2-3 feet). Size varies 
from 3 to 12 inches, depending on its mood & sub-species. 
 
SYMPTOMS: This snake attacks mainly women in the lower front abdomen, 
resulting in an inconspicuous bump. Then a severe swelling followed by 
excruciating pain after nine months. The attack is not usually fatal. 
Beware: It has been known to attack men in the rear lower abdomen! 
 
HABITAT: Usually found in bedrooms, but has been known to appear in 
the most unusual places. 
 
ANTIDOTE: Various types of vaccine available for women. However, once 
the venom is injected into the body only drastic measures will ensure 
complete recovery. There is no known antidote for men. 
 
WHAT TO DO WHEN ATTACKED TOURNIQUET: Do not apply a tourniquet as the 
venom is too deep in the body to be affected. 
 
CUTTING THE WOUND: This would be completely unnecessary and 
ineffective as the bleeding will stop after a few weeks anyhow. 
 
SUCKING THE WOUND: This method is the most popular with the victim, 
but so far has not been reported to have led to any success. 
 
SEARCHING FOR ANTI-VENOM: 
1. Place four fingers of the right hand around the neck of the 
reptile, with the thumb in the front. 
2. Grip firmly and move the hand in an upwards and downwards motion. 
3. This will result in the snake becoming highly aggressive, very rigid 
and start spitting. The time taken for this milking process depends 
entirely on the milker and the last time the snake attacked. 
4. Once milked, the snake should be harmless for about 20 minutes. 
 
CONCLUSION: This snake, although it is very aggressive and active, is 
not necessarily a vermin, and treated with the right respect, makes a 
wonderful pet.
