Very scary. The stuff of nightmares.
Must agree. I am not really fond of snakes, but living on a bayou in Louisiana, I have come to certain agreements with the critters. If you are not poisonous and not doing anything threatening, you may live and go about your business. We have a very large king snake that lives in our equipment shed that abides by the rule.
If you are poisonous and threatening, you may meet your maker. Copperheads are very beautiful creatures and I do make extra effort to spare them.
The thought of the water on our property containing 16-foot pythons is just more than I want to imagine. The gators are bad enough, but tend to be rather shy unless you happen upon one and startle him/her.
I shudder just reading this. I HATE snakes.
