Re: This makes me...angry

This picture is all over Facebook right now. It seems the picture originated in Australia, which seems logical as the snake is an Olive Python. The story I've seen most often attached to the picture is that the snake was found in a backyard normally occupied by a Terrier. The dog was nowhere to be found and, obviously, the snake is the prime suspect in its disappearance. Some moron found the picture on the web and shared it with the caption you see above. Instant internet fame.

Re: This makes me...angry

To be fair, we dont KNOW what the snake ate..
I could change the label to baseballs, or babies, and it would dramatically change the effect from poor snake (baseballs) to omg poor babies that.
Could have had a rabbit for dinner and the guy was "trying" to be funny.
( I don't really find it funny and I have an odd sense of humour)

He could also be sick in the head and this story could be true. There's always more to the story and can't believe everything we read on the internet.

(always watching, Aaron, aaaalways watching...)

Also I do agree, it really makes the hobby look worse to the people that do believe everything they read and the ones who are afraid of snakes. sigh

Re: This makes me...angry

The biologist side of me sees no difference between feeding a baby kitten or mouse. It may be a good thing just on the basis of cat over population. Honestly if this stops some from breeding there cat because they are afraid of where their animal might end up then I am all for it. To be frank what is worse for the animal a quick death as part of the circle of life or years of abuse and neglect. The pet owner side of me sees how this is a touchy subject. I do not like cats much but I don't know if I could feed a kitten to my snake.

Hi, even if it were true, is there a difference in feeding a kitten to a snake than feeding cows, pigs, sheep etc, etc to ourselves (or killing healthy horses to make dog food) if yes, what is the difference???
For you and everyone else, "domestic" (with "caring" owners) cats kill MILLIONS of wild birds every year the world over (not to mention other animals, too)....
If we`re talking feeding a live healthy kitten, then personally I would never do that.
