Snakes, lets talk about it.

I saw an article today and it had fear written all over it.
Why?
If anyone knows about snakes, they are docile, all they want to do is be alone and away from people.

I have had a few pythons and know how timid they are.
They are the least likely to bite you.

A ball python( or royal python) is the least likely to bite you, thats why they use them to teach children about snakes in schools.

Enough with the fear, your cat will mess you up before a snake does.
It is said that man fears, death, heights and snakes....but why??
Its irrational?

The biggest one I had was 115lbs and was a gentle giant...his name was Sunny and he scared the crap out of people, nobody knew what a sweetheart he was, people just believed the hype about a big snake.
I have some pics but i can't upload them, ats is being funny with me.

I would be more scared of a hundred foot drop before I would be afraid of a little snake.
The are docile and only want to get away from you...its really that simple.

The fear is in your head.
When i was younger, we would train them by letting them bite us, after that, they would calm down and be pals.

Any Herpetology peeps in the house??

Aww. I love Little Rays. So great for kids and big kids.

Snakes are just one of those things. Spiders too I guess. I think it's the "slitheriness".

On EA*RTH Amaru/Nahash control the rodent activity.

I wonder if it's the same with space...

I don't like snakes and I have seen too many videos
of kittens being fed to them.

I saw this 25' monster in person awhile back.

Many fear Serpents in current times because they are associated with the Shayāṭīns said to of been in the Garden of Eden.

I didn't realize you were in my area.

Is it Amphibian, Insectoid, Mammalian or Reptilian defense watching over planet EA*RTH outside of EA*RTH/SOL Space?

RA and APEP conflicts...

a reply to: mamabeth

I fed mine rabbits, the small ones got rats.

And so long ago Sphinx represents Feline/mammalian energy.

Understand the monkeying around yet

It's not just humans.
Be well ATS...

where i live we have rattlesnakes, copperheads, water mocaison, and corals. The corals are the most problematic because of their propensity to hide in flower beds and bushes.

My rule: a snake on my property gets killed to protect my dogs and the neighborhood. A snake at my work gets killed to protect my staff (we kill at least 1 a month at work). I take the time to identify, so im not killing a diamondback water snake, which is a "good snake" thinking its a rattler.

Beyond that, i don't mess with them in the wild. I let snakes be snakes, and they let me be human, and we let each other alone after that.

I had a Ball Python, Opus was his name. Very gentle as you describe. One time, Opus escaped..uh oh, he was found a few months later hanging from the shower head of the appt below us..uh oh. I'm thankful the below neighbour was familliar and didn't kill him.

That was some time ago..now I just have 6 tarantula's

The only real conflict on earth mammals vs reptiles, do your part for you species and don't fall for the pro snake propaganda!

I was mentoring 2 boxers, I took them in the woods and picked up a wild snake and set him on my lap, they started calling me Mr. Miyagi. lol

I don't mind snakes, they are mostly benificial around here.

Spiders on the the other hand? Ugg. They don't seem to run away from me. They want to run at me.
Then they have to die.

Dirty B's.
