As they time when a person is bitten : Time is Tissue .
Usually there is an internal bleeding in the region of the
bite, it appears as a bunch of pararellel blood line which
also take a colour of dark blue, espicially if the viper's
venom is Hemotoxic .

Why does just looking at your snake pics give me chills? They are beautiful animals, definitely a love/hate relationship.
