I think I am self-contradictory on views of snake.Snake makes me panic,while I like watching TV programmes or films related to snakes very much.As for me,I never thought to keep a snake as pet because it is dangerous.Most of snakes are toxic and make our lives fatal if bited by it. But I have great interest in watching snakes just through screens.I guess you certainly think I am coward.I think so. May be snake is too mysterious to me.I want to know more ,but I dare not to keep close to snake. Do you have a same feeling as mine?

I personally like snakes. My aunt used to have a Boa, and it was awesome! He would wrap his huge body around my own, and my aunt would have to get him off of me because he was far too big for me to move myself. I want to get a snake, but we don't have the space for a tank and all that stuff right now. Not all snakes are poisonous, or venomous. You can get snakes that have no poisonous venom at all from local pet shops. I want to get a snake when it is just a baby, that way I can get it used to being held all the time, and it won't become violent and try to bite.

But I never thought to keep a snake as pet in house.It may be not imaginable.I don't trust snake as much as dogs.You are brave enough since you dare to let the snake wrap your body.it is dangerous,you will never know when it is angry and bite you defenselessly. Even though, my interest of watching snake programmes seems increasing day by day rather than decreasing.I bothered my boyfriend to dowload such kind of movies and enjoyed them in constant cries and screams.I do think I am some coward,am I? Haha,enjoy your day.

Snakes are just like any other pet or animal. If they feel threatened they will bite you in defense. Even a dog is capable of biting, not only a snake. I have a dog, and yes, she has bitten people before. She bit a man that robbed my wallet from my purse, I luckily got it back, minus the money, but my dog taught that man a lesson. It all depends on how you train an animal, and yes, snakes can be trained too. You just have to take them out everyday, and show them that you are the boss, just like with any other animal.

To show it that you are the boss,how interesting!In fact,you are right,every animal can be kept as pets since an long-last relationship has been established between you two.You need it for entertaiment,while he relies on you for food.Great!Sometimes like dogs can be your guarders from danger.
