Without more of an understanding (I know vaguely about your stomach acids being able to digest venom (obviously you'd spit most of it out)), I'm not convinced I'd be too confident sucking venom out of an arm, let alone a hairy sack.

As said in the thread it is a myth that you can suck out the venom but if you could then the venom would not harm you. You can drink snake venom (said to be quite sweet) with no ill effects as long as you don't have any cuts etc in your mouth. Venom is completely fine as long as it cannot get into your blood stream.

Indeed, people often get confused between poisonous and venemous. A snake in itself and including its venom is not poisonous.
