I bet that is two thing you never thought you would hear together? Rattlesnakes and Breast Cancer Awareness Month, huh? Well fun fact, Copperheads, Southern Copperheads (Agkistrodon contortrix contortrix) are contributing to breast cancer research! There is a protien in their venom that inhibits the growth of breast cancer. I share this every year, I find an article or the study to share. But today when I found the study, I scrolled and read it again and then kept scrolling and realized exactly how many more studies this one lead to or was related to. So click here to go to the original study, but take a moment to scroll down and see just a handful of things we have learned from our venomous animals.
#RattlesnakeFriday is a hashtag made to raise awareness about the need for conservation of ALL venomous animals. While we may mostly highlight rattlesmakes, you might see some other stuff smattered in.
