Discovery process Twenty years ago the day, a forest employee bitten by a snake, to find the local treatment of the most famous doctors Chen Yuanhui venom, because no matter what the snake, he can heal for a week. When Chen Yuanhui see the wounds of patients found that a huge bite mark, bite marks so much of these large snakes have only acutus, but the patient's body venom dangerous, much more vigorous than acutus. According to the workers described the snake biting his body yellowish brown and white, there is a white tail, obviously this is not acutus, then what is he a snake bite it? Chen Yuanhui also find information everywhere, and he describes the snake can not find the corresponding species, from the venom of the Chen Yuanhui that specializes in the treatment took more than a month only then that employees remove the body of the snake venom. Chen Yuanhui toxicity provoked a huge snake looking for this kind of curiosity, one long white tail of a snake engraved in his mind, since he began looking for such a highly toxic white-tailed snake. We all know that Dr Chan was looking for a Python, do not know each caught a snake, it will give Chen Yuanhui sent, see if he was looking for white-tailed snake. Loaded each time the snake open pockets, are a promising opening, however, opened every mystery is disappointing results. So five years passed. White-tailed snake really exist? Workers who were bitten or illusion? However, the workers who were bitten by a huge body that the toxicity of the bite mark and unique, so he is convinced that a certain white-tailed snakes live in this deep in the mountains. In early September 1989, Mang Forest Authority staff in protected areas of a folder valley found a litter of water snake and two into a strange snake. They all have a white tail. Chen Yunhui immediately after hearing the news, he realized that this is hard to find a five-year white-tailed snake. He immediately contacted the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Chengdu Institute of Zoology, in December he was found with a snake reptile expert Zhao Mi of China, after the study compared to determine this is a new species. In 1990, China's "Sichuan animals" on the first phase of Professor Zhao Ermi and Chen Yuanhui signed a petition to the world that Mang Shan in China discovered a new species of snake, its body can be comparable to Python, and Cobra also has the same toxicity named Mangshan iron head, the snakes from the world's known family members rose to 50. Mangshan tip so called, the main reason is that it was obvious triangular shape of the head of a soldering iron. And compared with normal iron head snake, great shape Mangshan tip, up to two meters long. Mang Shan has been found in the heaviest snake tip over 8.5 kg, and in the absence of new species identified as before, had been caught weighing over 15 kg into a snake. This can shape the world's largest python snake ---- comparable. But the difference is with the python, Mang Mountain Viper tip is to play. It belongs to Viperidae, as in this subject are reminiscent of the evil Rattlesnake, and has known beauty snake Trimeresurus snakes. Them or ugly, or colorful, but snakes are famous, or even takes away people's lives play snake. And in the Viperidae snake Mangshan tip is closest to the original spearhead the abdomen, also known as iron head, play snake. It also showed a triangular head, like iron, but the models than the much smaller Mangshan tip, it was slim body is also a lot, and Mangshan tip was not in a heavy weight on. But it is not the object of a mess, once threatened, it will put the offensive posture, the tail will swing the same as the Diamondbacks, though not sound, but enough to deter each other. If you get bitten, the venom gland in its secretion of venom also brings danger. Mangshan tip tip weight is ten times more than the snake, due to a huge body also increased the secretion of venom, once bitten, its venom will rapidly with the on_set_ of blood in the body, if not promptly treated death will say about the region. Five years of looking destined for Chen Yuanhui honor for the first time to see this legendary white-tailed snakes, and other than he seems to have been very lucky. Yao people lived for generations in the high ranges of the quiet and remote place, as partners with the apes, birds as neighbors. They "small dragon" for the brothers, Bong it as a totem. But for thousands of years, long white tail with a small black dragon is the protagonist of the ancient legend, people in the mortal can never be seen. This time the meeting has led to numerous Chen Yuanhui expectations, to understand the Mangshan tip, once a need is not met, but the depth of observation. Tip was bitten Mangshan workers who bite marks on the body so that Chen Yuanhui still fresh. Faced with this strange snakes, everything is unknown. For this endemic species Mangshan, Chen Yuanhui has unique natural advantages. Tip of the Chen Yuanhui Mangshan doctors become more famous from the "Snake Doctor." This role change left him nine experienced the death of the test. The last time nearly killed him injured, survived, he lost a length fingers, but this also made him head of the snake Mangshan iron have a more profound understanding of toxicity, which occurred in the summer two years ago . Dragon Habitat is a huge rock, rock under the weeds, the darkness has numerous hidden caves. It has repeatedly found in the tip Mangshan, so this home named Dragon. August 17, 2003, Chen Yuanhui caught a home in the Dragon about one year old Mang Shan tip. Previously born into a snake and snake are found, but about one year old discovery Mangshan tip, this is the first time. The entire biosphere is a large food chain, Mang Shan also in one tip. Although it is great size, but also developed the venom gland, but it also has natural enemies. Especially when it is time to snake, it is always subject to life-threatening. A variety of hawks and eagles, weasels, hog, is the implacable enemy of snakes, the snake is often a newborn born to become their delicacies. The discovery of this snake is a surprise for Chen Yuanhui. To make the snake continues to grow in the wild breed, three days later, August 20, 2003 Chen Yuanhui and other researchers to return home ready to release Dragon. Captured snake to be able to release the entire process, Chen Yuanhui the snake did not throw off as usual, but slowly it on the grass, but the accident occurred Chen Yuanhui: "I just put it down to a loose hand, left hand it back to bite me, bite the middle finger, my hand for a song, the results of it hanging in my hands." Even Chen Yuanhui had no idea would be accidents. When he was ready to immediately deal with the wound, he found his bite marks on his left middle finger is very clear, for researchers, fresh bite marks is an important research data, and this is only a one-year-old snake, Chen Yuanhui decided to not deal with wound, but facing the wound photographs. Chen Yuanhui significantly underestimated the toxicity of snake, when Chen Yuanhui begins to process the wound when they are feeling more and more tired. Soon Chen Yuanhui to lie down on the ground, accompanied by her daughter had been treated and Chen Yuanhui learning venom, under the guidance of her father, beginning in first aid. Colleagues at this time the idea was also taken to hospital unconscious past Chen Yuanhui soon to be rejected. Chen Yuanhui was quickly brought down the mountain back home, his daughter, according to his previous prescription find herbal medicine, give him a dressing treatment. Chen Yuanhui so two days and nights sleeping at home. On the third day, Chen Yuanhui finally woke up, but the upper part of his left middle finger has been bitten canker, desperation had to amputated, a snake tip Mangshan memorial left him forever. But the accident did not allow Chen Yuanhui Mangshan give up on the tip of the snake, but valuable information on the shoot was very proud of.
