Previous table I did and many of you have was only from late 1990s thru now, I did it in hurry when that Arlington count, VA hysteria was happening.
This new one goes to 1990 and mentions wild fatalities too.The yearly rate went form 0.7 death per year to 0.88 death per year by captive venom snakes.
Also, one of the deaths listed in previous flyer did NOT happen, it was NJ guy bitten by Gabon Viper, neighbors assumed he was dead, but he was alive in the hospital treated for bite. He made news since his pets were illegal.
However, animal right sites, most notably API (Animal protection Institute-Born Free) erroneously reported this as dead body. Until now I was not able to find out more, but finally I found paid archive service where I was able to retrieve that news relating to this event, and the owner did NOT die this time.So I removed the NJ fatality, but in the old flyer I forgot 1997 Cobra Pennsylvania fatality, so the ration for pet venomous snake stays same, I just found more religious related fatalities.
Anyway, this paper is big and if I made another mistake, please let me know

PS: The site has been down a lot lately, so be patient, service sucks, so we r lookign for different LESS F*&*G FLAKY provider and better service, which will take time and money, so just keep trying until it no longer says 'service unavailable'
