Snake bites are really a menace in India. The no. of patients that land up in the emergency is unbelievable. The survival rate is not even worth talking about. India desperately needs a scaling up of research about its burning problems like snake antivenoms, TB and many many more.
Hi Mundografia! I am the Art Director for Asimov Press and creator of the Lead Image for this fine Llama article. I love to use open source and public domain images from a variety of websites. This particular llama image is from is the 'Animals of the World Series' Issued by Abdul Cigarettes in 1881. You can see more like it on the New York Met website here: https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/631327

Btw a very interesting and enlightening article!
I am so glad you liked it! India was on my mind because of a fantastic piece from our colleague Saloni Dattani, who wrote on the magnitude of this problem before we did. https://www.scientificdiscovery.dev/p/14-how-many-people-die-from-snakebites
Yeah I did save this article's link yesterday only. Onto it.
Off topic but how do I find more examples of the type of drawing on the original llama image? I love it :)
