Kyle Ray, the curator at Watamu Snake Farm, speaks during an interview at the farm as he cradles a Sand Boa snake in his hands in Watamu on April 8, 2025. The World Health Organization (WHO) categorized snakebite envenomation into the Category A of the Neglected Tropical Diseases due to high morbidity and mortality. Africa is amongst other regions that have low to non-availability of antivenom therapies. The Kenya Snakebite Research and Intervention Centre within the Institute of Primate Research (KIPRE) is in a race to research and develop antivenom locally, a first for Kenya and Eastern Africa, that have been over-reliant on imported antivenom from mainly Mexico and India despite wide-spread inefficacy as treatments in one region often do not effectively treat snake bites in another region.
