People, you gotta realize that not just because they're animals they can be released into the wild whenever you want. An animal that has been raised as a pet hardly ever knows how to rely on their natural instincts. I'll have you know that if you ever just dumped a pet on the streets thinking 'it's fine, it's an animal, they know what to do' you've most likely just sent your pet to their death

[@faizatutun9942]

The sad truth is a lot of them thinks that and dumps them. What really shocks me most times is how sometimes people can be really cruel. Telling others that they are scared of some animals.

[@sarahno4748]

Yup. If you hand raise them you can't just dump them at random.

[@jaschabull2365]

And in the best case scenario, the pet's going to wreak havoc on the environment you left it in trying to survive.

[@sonyablade1374]

Thank you! This is what I have been talking about. I know these people mainly have good intentions by saying these animals should be released back in the wild, but they almost never got the opportunity to develop such instincts due to them being in a protected environment! If they go back, they have high chances of not surviving, so what's better? Letting them out or keeping them inside somewhere where they will be fed, protected and cared after 24/7? Hope more people see your comment because it's 100% correct!

@Patrick Swan I couldn't agree more. I've owned, bred, caught and released snakes (in their proper environments) since the 1960s. But I get very frustrated at videos that anthropomorphize them. This crap encourages ignorance, and as far as snakes are concerned, ends up doing harm, not good..

[@Runeman40055]

@@bjs301 it’s weird how people think they possess human emotions which are the result of complex prefrontal cortexes and the largest encephalisation quotient of all animals. Snakes may be tamed but aren’t domesticated (selectively bred for dozens of generations for human-seeking behaviour) like a dog would be.

[@benh9784]

@@bjs301You're very likely right, but they can show a sense of comfort towards humans whose scent and touch they know and trust. They also do have personalities; there are those snakes who prefer strict solitude to limited interaction, and those who will seek out human contact over those who won't. I've owned snakes, and while I can say I never felt they were "loving," there was one male snake I cared for who preferred human contact. He had a heat lamp, was well-fed, was at ease in his enclosure, and yet when I opened his enclosure in the mornings, he'd want to curl up on my lap over all other options available to him. He lived to a ripe, old age, but he never tired of our morning routine until the day he passed.

[@bjs301]

@@benh9784 Sure, I've owned similar snakes. Thinking the supposed preference for human contact is based on any sense of attraction or affection is simply nonsense. Your male had a heat lamp. I wonder if he'd have still sought you out if he had a heat pad to lay on. Or maybe you used an irritating substrate. Catch a species of climbing snake, and it'll spend all day trying to climb up on you. I find it preferable to try to understand animals on their own terms, rather than naively thinking they simply behave the way I want them to behave.

You can put a snake in a tub with a lid and air-holes and a shallow amount of warm water (nothing as deep as in the video) for about twenty minutes (some people put a rock in there for the snake to sit on so it doesn't get too stressed) and then you should be able to peel the shed right off. :)

Years ago, I was left to care for a ball python after the owner moved out and left (him?) behind. Snakes aren't really my jam, but no living creature deserves to be abandoned and not cared for. So, I named him Wheels. I went to the library (the internet was a little baby then), and borrowed a few books on python care. Off to the pet shop I went, and quickly got over my fear of rodents, snakes and then feeding rodents to snakes. I knew that reptile parent wasn't in my cards, but it bought me enough time to research and find a specialty herp/reptile store in town that I could donate Wheels to. We spent a month together -- had some mice and shed some skin. I remember the time he pooped (thought my cat had somehow got in the tank and did it. It was HUGE!! ;) And to think I could have just taken him outside and left him under a tree 🧐🤦😡 Luckily, this beauty was found in time by people who honor her place in this world.
