Inland Taipan Antivenom is notoriously tricky to make, doesn’t store well, and you need ridiculous amounts of it to give someone a chance at survival. IIRC, someone else got bitten not long before that and the reserves of the hospitals/zoos in the area were all used up.
Not to mention that the Inland Taipan is native to Australia. Those snakes can’t be all that common in Florida, unless there’s a feral population I’m not aware of. The fact that there’s any supply of antivenin in the US at all seems really lucky!
He really had to go across the country for that? That’s crazy none were closer, even mid way.
