This means if anyone you know has taken heart medication in the past 55 years, this snake\u2019s venom has likely been helping them to live a healthier life, if not as an ingredient in their specific medication, then at least by pioneering the field of heart and blood pressure medicine in general.<\/p>\n<p>The jararaca ranges from southern Brazil into northern Argentina and west into Paraguay. Within this area, it is predominantly a forest-dwelling snake, feeding and breeding during the wet season and much less active when the weather becomes drier. The snakes mostly use the forest canopy as a nursery, mating in the treetops and giving birth to live young in the higher branches; there the juveniles can safely hide from predators and feed on frogs. The adults usually live lower down and feed on rodents on the forest floor. The jararaca largely avoids humans by keeping to the forests and being active mostly at night, however, this snake is known to foray into the urban landscapes around S\u00e3o Paolo.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><!-- close content main div --><\/div><\/div><div id='av_section_3'  class='avia-section av-8ty2t1i-b11011216489cf114f48b81b76a9c1fe main_color avia-section-default avia-no-border-styling  avia-builder-el-9  el_after_av_section  el_before_av_section  species-inner-content-intro-wrapper avia-bg-style-scroll container_wrap fullsize'  ><div class='container av-section-cont-open' ><div class='template-page content  av-content-full alpha units'><div class='post-entry post-entry-type-page post-entry-15686'><div class='entry-content-wrapper clearfix'>\n<div  class='flex_column av-8lzpb2e-ad16fa36e502faae41243e8230b68bdd av_one_full  avia-builder-el-10  avia-builder-el-no-sibling  first flex_column_div'     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-lfn25lcg-2b6565369223360a11ad048ba2f891d8'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h5><strong>The Locale<\/strong><\/h5>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-lfn27h5g-df35a87d4914af1f05d1ad930cdf779d\">\n.avia-image-container.av-lfn27h5g-df35a87d4914af1f05d1ad930cdf779d img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-lfn27h5g-df35a87d4914af1f05d1ad930cdf779d .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-lfn27h5g-df35a87d4914af1f05d1ad930cdf779d av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-12  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock'   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" class='wp-image-37675 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-37675 avia_image' src='https:\/\/wildlifepreservation.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/brazi-1.jpg' alt='' title='brazi'  height=\"557\" width=\"550\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-lfn27r0y-61916c330a6e3bc9f3ed3c558e4a0d11'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Downtown S\u00e3o Paulo.

Because so many smaller cities have run together with and been absorbed by S\u00e3o Paulo, population is hard to determine, but ranges between 11 million and 32 million, depending on what you include in the city limit. That\u2019s an enormous number of people living as neighbours to the Jararaca no matter how you count!<\/p>\n<p>Despite the fragmented nature of the urban landscape, a diverse assemblage of snakes can still be found. In all, 38 snake species are known to live in and around S\u00e3o Paulo, and the Jararaca is the third most common, <a href=\"https:\/\/bioone.org\/journals\/South-American-Journal-of-Herpetology\/volume-6\/issue-3\/057.006.0301\/Diversity-Natural-History-and-Distribution-of-Snakes-in-the-Municipality\/10.2994\/057.006.0301.short\">making up roughly 16% of the total snake population<\/a>. In certain state parks and nature reserves, the Jararaca may be the most common snake of all, with up to 70% of snakes found by visitors and scientists being Jararacas. Interestingly, Jararacas living in urban forest fragments are able to live <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jstor.org\/stable\/26792526?seq=1#metadata_info_tab_contents\">well enough on urban rodents to survive and grow<\/a>, while their predators struggle to survive in the city.

Today, however, 99.3% of jararaca bites result in a full recovery. The Instituto Butantan has been taking in captured snakes since 1906 to extract venom for use in creating antivenin, and later medication. As well as helping people with heart conditions, certain elements of the venom also act as a coagulant, stopping heavy bleeding and saving people from severe injuries.<\/p>\n<p>Through extensive study, the different parts of jararaca venom became better understood, which allowed compounds to be isolated for their individual effects. When the compounds that acted on the heart were identified, those that created useful effects were purified and diluted to create the effect, such as lowering blood pressure, just the right amount to turn the venom from something dangerous, to a tool for living healthier lives. Now there is ongoing research into other potential uses for the venom from this and other snake species, including destroying cancer cells!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><!-- close content main div --><\/div><\/div><div id='av_section_5'  class='avia-section av-711lame-49a8f54f7102a4abbc8aac873e70ddd9 main_color avia-section-default avia-no-border-styling  avia-builder-el-21  el_after_av_section  el_before_av_section  species-inner-content-intro-wrapper avia-bg-style-scroll container_wrap fullsize'  ><div class='container av-section-cont-open' ><div class='template-page content  av-content-full alpha units'><div class='post-entry post-entry-type-page post-entry-15686'><div class='entry-content-wrapper clearfix'>\n<div  class='flex_column av-nfw4xy-20fa6eddbdec39feb27e9e98d8de35c6 av_one_full  avia-builder-el-22  avia-builder-el-no-sibling  first flex_column_div'     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-lfn2cbl0-c55cb59317ab33e7421b629b9e19d9d0'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h5><strong>Final Thoughts<\/strong><\/h5>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-lfn2dckl-ce3b99c7351588563bdb407ad2b4cea2'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>The jararaca is a shining example of the benefits of tolerating and embracing vipers as neighbours: they and their venom (carefully modified, of course!) have saved countless lives through heart medication.
