Old article, but interesting nonetheless. Dude ate an entire rattlesnake including skin, bones, and fangs, and lived at least long enough to digest and poop it out. Don't mess with Texas.

ABOUT 1,500 YEARS AGO, A hunter-gatherer in present-day Texas ate an entire venomous snake. This isnt presumptive, an inference based on the knowledge that our ancestors painful trials and errors have informed our modern dietary preferences and precautions. It comes straight from the source: the individuals fossilized poop, replete with one of the snakes preserved, poison-pumping fangs.

After the team chemically reconstituted the specimen and revealed the snakes bones, scales, and fang, however, the researchers realized they didnt have their hands on just any really old poop. Smith compared the fang to others in Texas A&M Universitys biodiversity collection, and concluded that it likely belonged to a rattlesnake. That makes this coprolite the first known fecal record of a human eating an entire venomous snake.
