Snakes- I have no fear

Met this girl in goa she assured me she wasnt frightened of these snakes around her, she looks frightened to me :D :D :eek:

 

Interesting Linda. I love snakes of the constricting kind.Not too sure about the bitey poisoney ones though.

 

john these snakes are fine, the cobra they take their fangs out in india, not so sure i agree with that mind and to be kept in a box is a bit cruel, I am not a lover of snakes myself when that cobra moved towards me i can tell you i ran, mind didnt find out afterwards about their fangs being removed, even iff i had known i might still have ran, very lucky i got close enough to take these pics. :D :eek: i,m terrified of them

 

I wonder how you remove the fangs from a cobra?

I bet its a pretty grusome process, that puts this sort of thing in the same category as dancing bears, as far as I'm concerned.
Dont think I would want anything to do with it personally.
Although I can understand how it can be interesting to watch rosa. :eek:

 

:eek: Not I....!

 

pete, I would normally of just walked by as i dont find them very interesting, its only because i knew that girl she asked me to take pics when i was walking by and i didnt know till after i took the pics that they de-fanged them.
I really dont know how they remove the fangs, they dont do this in thailand

 

You are about right Pete. I understand that removing the fangs considerably shortens the snake's life. Human entertainment again.

 

Here is yours truly wearing a python as a necklace in Sri Lanka in the summer of 1995.

 

Gosh, remember those photos, Sis ... you were cuter than the snake.

 

Well, thank you kindly, Sis!

 

kedigato you have more guts than me i certainly would not do that in a million years, never, never, never i am terrified of snakes :D :eek:
That girl was lucky that i went over to take them pics and i didnt get too close i used the zoom on my camera.

 

Lithe and sleek and likes a hug and the snake looks fit too! :D

 

Ive come across a few snakes before whilst working, mostly grass snakes but even these harmless souls make me cringe, Couldnt touch a proper big snake like the ones pictured.

 

We have them slithering around all over here. I think there are nine species in Portugal, all non poisonous. I've had them here in the garden a meter long that went to live in our shed and then a baby one wiggling around the kitchen as a surprise. :D

They don't bother me at all ... people are more of a problem at times. :rolleyes:

 

rosa they are very nice but only around someone elses neck .think it must be the thought of the poison ..well done but not for me and i couldnt take the fangs out but i could tape the mouth up...lol one lived in your shed
