Fig. 3. Venom flow profile from a unilateral strike. In the initial strike, only the contralateral fang penetrated the target, which corresponded to the initial broad pulse of venom flow. Subsequently, the snake pivoted so that its ipsilateral fang could penetrate, which resulted in the second, narrower pulse of venom flow. During the initial pulse of venom flow, no venom was ejected from the free fang tip.
