These are 2 sets of entries from 2 different snakes. Who do you think has the better life? This is in case anyone still questions the morals of, if we are right in keeping reptiles.
Take outs from a wild male Boa Constrictor’s diary.
Spring: Another rainy humid day. Had to avoid the Jaguar again today, he’s starting to get pretty clever; I think I’ll have to look for new places to hide. Crawled though some tall grass picked up 8 ticks. Rotten Blood suckers. I’ll go down to the river to try and soak for a while, just hope those caiman are not there today.
Oh great even worse, the village kids are playing in the river. I know they will all scream if they see me, and try to kill me. Have to find another spot now. Hmmm getting kind of hungry too.
Hmmm there’s a nice rabbit, if I’m real quiet I can get dinner finally. Ok I’m ready now just coil up a bit…Darn, stupid monkeys scared it off. One of these days I’m going to get that monkey. Oh well another long time without a meal.
Summer: Wow is it hot out now!!! I’m sitting by the river in the shade, trying to keep cool. I better go hide in the tree here come the caiman.
Time to go look for food. Haven’t eaten in almost 2 months now. Sometimes I wish I was a vegetarian. Nahhh. Good thing I’m up this tree, there goes that jaguar again. He’s been after me for a long time now. One day it’s going to be me or him. Hey there’s a mouse over there. It’s kind of small but it’s better than nothing. Arggh the little &*^&% bit me!!! Oh he is sooo dead. Well that was good, still kind of hungry though. Oh well it will have to do.
Fall: Ahh it’s cooling down a bit. I’m feeling pretty good today. Haven’t had any ticks for a while, the mites have left m alone. Life is good! Started feeling sort of funny lately, been getting some strange urges. Hey… there is a really nice female Boa, I think I’ll try to get to know her. Hmmm she didn’t seem interested in me. Oh well her loss. Hey there is another girl, woohoo she’s a real cutie too. Hmmm there’s another male by her, I’m going to have to fight to get her, shouldn’t be a problem I think I can take him. See that wasn’t so bad. Now on to the lady. Sweet she likes me. Ahhh so this is the urge I was having. Hey what’s that noise? Doesn’t matter I’m to busy to care. Oh great its 2 of those humans, maybe they will leave us be. Oh no one of them has a big knife and he is coming for us!!!

A few entries from Ed_r’s male Boa Constrictors diary
Spring: Some guy’s taking me to his house, boy I hope he knows what he is doing. I’m getting hungry. Ok were home, hmmm halfway desent place, just hope he doesn’t stick me in a cold box. Hey this place isn’t half bad. No Taj Mahal but not bad either. Nice and warm in here, hey a little cooler over on that side, I could get used to this. Hey cool he is going to feed me, at least I wont have too far to chase the food around. Hey, now this is service!!! He already killed my food for me! Well now THAT was a meal. I think I’ll just pass out for a while under the heat. Ahhhh. I think I’ll go in the water for a bit now, ahh nice and refreshing, and all to myself. Too Cool. Oooops now I did it, I made a mess in my water. So much for my clean water. Oh great here he comes in my house, what is he going to do now? Hey he is cleaning up my mess, Sweet. Now I have a maid!!!
Summer: Hey, he’s taking me out of my home. Wonder what he is doing? Cool we’re going outside. That sun sure feels good, fresh air ahh I think I’ll just chill out here for a bit. Maybe do a little exploring. Hey yeah it’s feeding day again. I’m getting so spoiled not having to kill my food anymore. Can’t wait to see him clean up after me again. I got him wrapped around me tail. Wonder who those cute lady Boas are? I wouldn’t mind meeting them.
Fall: My house seems a bit cooler. Getting some funny urges lately. The girls seems to be pretty active too, something must be up. Here he comes taking me out of my house again. Where is he taking me? He’s putting me in one of the girl’s houses!!! Hey guy your alright!!! So hey honey…. How U Duin? Woohoo If the house is rockin don’t come knockin!!! Whew I’m beat. Glad to be back home now. She was pretty nice. Where is he taking me now? Oh Yeah!!!! I’m in another girl’s house!!! Woohoo Who’s your snakie!!!
This is wearing me out! Not that it’s a bad thing. Hey I saw another girl here too, wonder if I will get to meet her too? Sure enough here I go again!!! Woohooo!!!!
Winter: Ah Winter a time for reflection. This has been a wonderful year for me. I’ve put on quite a few pounds. Yeah I haven’t missed many meals. He does everything for me, even kills my food for me. What a guy!!! Set me up in a pretty nice house. Takes me out when its nice out. Best of all he hooks me up with all kinds of girl friends. This is the life. Although sometimes I wonder what it would be like to be free and live back in the rainforests with all the other Boas, and other animals. I bet they really have it nice. Regardless I’m still happy here.
