The red=venomous myth comes from the misconception that venom is only used in self defense. Predators don't want to advertise their presence whilst hunting. See: all spiders (except red ones and peacock spiders). Other bright colors can also signify danger. Most often yellow but you see the whole spectrum in poisonous (not venomous) amphibians.

It actually makes a lot of sense now. Predators don't need coloring to warn off other predators. I hadn't thought about the distinction previously.

I thought everyone knew pythons are not venomous.

Yeah, when I saw the question I was hoping it'd be a venomous vs. poisonous question

Jfc. Snap answered this one. Snap got it wrong. I'm an embarrassment to science nerds everywhere.

Last time zdye was the wettest of blankets. I fully expect that he will further moisten his bed linen.
