We are not talking about venomoiding the snake, what was mentioned was removing the fangs. A venomoid snake can live and thrive, a snake whose fangs are removed often starves to death.

The venomoid surgery involves removing the glands and ducts that produce and deliver the venom, VERY different from removing the fangs.
