Synopsis
Excerpt from A Statistical Study of the Rattlesnakes
It is well known that the active fangs of the rat tlesnakes are changed or replaced periodically, such renewal occurring whether the discarded member has been damaged or is still intact. Whether replacement is hastened, if a functional fang has been broken out entirely, prior to the normal time of change, is not known. The delicacy and fra gility of the fangs, particularly in the smaller snakes, makes such a provision for replacement imperative, as does likewise the necessity for providing larger fangs as a snake grows.
