The owner of this deck hasn't added a sideboard, they probably should...

creatures that give poison counters do damage directly to opponent with tawnos's wand, viridian longbow, and whispersilk cloak, while fireshrieker allows them to double poison counters and emerald charm allows those with the longbow to strike twice in one turn. the elves boost up the poison creatures and supply mana. and the cats give them cover with creature tokens. gaea's cradle and natural order allow you to get out either your poison creatures of the bigger creatures that you might not be able to afford. at first i had this as a black/green deck with: fear snake cult initiation crypt cobra swamp mosquito Suq'Ata Assassin but i had too many cards and felt like all of these creatures were too weak. any suggestions on if you think that would work better, and if so how to make it work, would be appriciated. im also looking for any ways to improve the deck and keep it green so hit me up with any thoughts on that.

Very nice. A card that might help is Nacatl War-pride, which soaks up you opponents blockers (and is devastating against weenie decks, which usually destroy poison decks), and would probably help more than Kamahl

You NEED NEED NEED Serpent Generator. With Gaea's Cradle and Nacatl War-Pride, you have some serious mana potential. If you could find a way to repeatedly untap Serpent Generator, you would have nearly infinite 1/1 snakes that give poison counters. I would also consider adding some of the legendary snakes from the Kamigawa set that pump up your other snakes.
Always wanted to see a poison deck in action seems really cool to win a game other then taking your opponent to 0 life. I would like to suggest adding trample to the deck, possibly Rancor or Primal Rage.
Neurok Sail would be good (gives equipped creature flying), as would Surestrike Trident Looks awesome =D
I would recommend taking out Fireshrieker, because although the creature would deal its damage twice, the poisonous ability only triggers on the first time damage is dealt to a player. if you were to attack with a virulent sliver and it had double strike, it would deal its damage twice to your opponent, but it would only give them one poison counter.
You are incorrect. Since damage is dealt during each step, a counter would be applied each step as well. The sliver with poisonous 1 reads "Whenever a sliver deals combat damage to a player, that player gets a poison counter." Double strike essentially creates two damage steps, and damage incurred during is "combat damage" both times, resulting in two counters.
what's your source on that jackfrost? i wasn't sure, but i tried to look it up online and what i found people said was that it would deal 3 poison counters, since one is deal "whenever (the creature) deals combat damage to a player" and it deals damage twice.
