I have seen "Mad Stones," and they come from the stomach of cud chewing animals. Also known as a "Bezoar." They are known to have healing properties for poisons. When I was a kid, my aunt and her friend were picking peas and were both bitten by the same rattlesnake. An old woman next door heard the screams and when she heard "snakebite," she ran inside and came back out with a leather pouch and put them in her car and drove them 20 miles to the emergency room. On the way, she used a "Mad Stone" taken from the stomach of a white deer on both bites and drew the poison out and neither of the women had to have the antidote injection.
