[@viablue8143]

Exactly. My family had pets even before my sister and I were born… they were always in our life, and we were taught very early to be respectful, calm and gentle with them. We were part of their lives, we sometimes fed them, brushed them, gave them water… we learned to be responsible for them. I will be always thankful to my parents because I learned so many important lessons so early - it didn’t even feel like learning or doing chores, they taught us to see the joy in caring for another living being (and we both have enjoyed it ever since). I genuinely pity and feel sad for all the children who grow up without animals (or with animals, but nobody shows them how to behave with them) because they miss out on so much.

@@unkownshoo1038 first off, I love snakes and other reptiles. I’ve owned large constrictor snakes and they are amazing creatures - so I’m not one of these anti-snake people. I also have a degree in biology and have taken courses specifically in herpetology. I do agree that certain species of snakes are more docile than others. Some snakes with routine handling can become acclimated to human contact and tamed to a degree. But saying a snake is domesticated because it is calm and doesn’t behave aggressively is a big stretch. Unlike cats and dogs, which underwent thousands of years of careful breeding to finally become domesticated, snakes function almost 100% by instinct. That snake in the video is a beautiful specimen, no doubt. It appears to be well taken care of. However, make no mistake, that snake isn’t hanging around that little girl because it thinks it’s a friend and wants to play Barbie dolls - she is a heat source, nothing more. Hopefully she doesn’t become a food source. It could easily kill her, could even do it accidentally. So again, I’d encourage anyone who is responsible to have a snake if they want one. But it is more of one of those pets that you observe as opposed to having a 2 way interaction like a dog or cat or even a hamster.

@@PepsiMagt You should probably educate yourself before commenting something so ignorant, that snake will never even attempt to eat that girl and less likely ever even strike at her. The amount of time that man has put in socializing that snake quite literally makes it as tame as a puppy dog and safe . Not only does it know what is food and what isn't but develops less fear of being around humans and enjoys being handled. Not to mention the fact that he supervises pet and daughter so she will be fine.

I used to have a 14ft Burmese that I got when he was around 10ft long. It was during the winter (he was a birthday gift) and the reptile store we got him from was going out of business because of the horrible way they ran the store. It was *freezing* in that store, and the snake was only like 150 dollars, which for a 10ft Burmese is mindblowing. But they needed to sell him and most others were intimidated by his size. I had them take him out of the enclosure he was in and he seemed fairly calm, but I learned a few days later it was only because he was too cold to show his aggression. For about 3 months he'd strike at his enclosure when we walked by, we had to cover his head to change his water and clean the pen, and feeding him was a lesson in stress. Then I started letting him out of his pen and it was like night and day. The more he was out and socialized, the better he got at being handled and around people in general. Eventually he got to where he would actively seek out company with us, he'd get into the shower with us, he *loved* attention from the neighborhood kids when we'd take him out to get direct sunlight during the spring and summer. He never once even hissed at the kids, let alone tried to bite them. He basically became a giant scaly dog. People think reptiles incapable of any kind of emotional connection but they really aren't these cold heartless unfeeling machines most people believe them to be.

@@ignightroad With him we found out after calling the pet store a few days after getting him that he'd been brought in by a guy who's wife had just had a baby, and she didn't want the snake around. He'd never been socialized, so he wasn't used to human interaction and stuff like that stressed and spooked him. Like you said, people think these animals act like that all the time because that's almost always the side that gets portrayed and "hyped" up. Kind of like how you only ever hear about bites from big dogs, even though little dogs are more prone to aggression and bite people all the darn time. As for my snake, he unfortunately passed away about 15 years ago. We had to leave our house after a winter storm left our basement flooded and our house without heat for about 8 days. We weren't allowed to take him where we went to stay, and no one we knew was willing to take him in for an unknown period of time. We had some space heaters on in the bedroom he was in (our electric was back on the next day but the water in the basement didn't drain out fully for the heater to be replaced for about a week) but it wasn't enough to keep him warm and he froze to death.

[@suprememathematics9257]

@@Deathworm-eg5lt All living beings, even worms...have the ability to communicate whether verbal or non verbal. If the animal could indeed assume a human form, the language which it uses to communicate with you & I would correlate with that form which it chooses to take on.

As a person who loves snakes, this makes me cry because of how sweet and wholesome this is...

[@gargoyleb]

That is a very unique relationship. Of all the critters I've seen that love a person, this one takes the cake.

I’m not sure she could swallow a whole cake.

Snakes can't love.

[@roypointanderson8468]

Snakes don't "Love" anybody. They are feeding machines, like sharks. Wouild you let the girl have a pet Great White Shark?

[@diggs5518]

Truly, an uneducated assumption.

I grew up with a boa constrictor too . Rosie was 16 feet and lived to be over 30 years old .. it’s nice to see this with another child .. like how I was brought up .. there truly magnificent animals .. brings back so many memories.. thank u 🙏

I couldn't leave a chair for two hours because my buddy left me alone with his...He called her cuddles. And I learned why.

[@Ian_Burt]

@@neonthepartycat4990 That's funny. The most popular pet snakes are Boa's and Pythons. I have a python and have played with the idea of getting a Red Tail Boa. I asked what the difference in personality was between the breeds and it was put to me like this. When you have a python out you can engage in activities while handling the snake. When you have a Boa out it is the activity.

God bless this guy for getting the snake used to human interaction and showing his daughter to be gentle! A cute pair!

[@slobodanevski]

Both are so gentle towards eachother, its just amazing. You can see the respect they have for eachother. That bond, yeah, no matter what, i dont think that snake will hurt that girl, like ever, even if shes left unsupervised or she feeds her. If something, it think that already hard core bond will be even greater then it already is. Im just amazed for real. I wouldn't dare do the things that girl does with that snake, and i guess its becase i wasnt rasied with one. The snake can feel her, she feels her being calm, pointing out she aint there to harm her, so she replies the same way, treating that girl with such trust, its mind blowing.

At one point she hugs the snake and it doesn't seem to mind. Remarkable.

[@jamesgray7301]

There is no better parent in the world than someone who teaches their children to be kind to animals. And for those who are so surprised about how docile and gentle the snake is, let me tell you that a snake is far more trustworthy than a human.

[@leunam3004]

The irony about the fact that we humans call untrustworthy humans snakes, despite snakes being more trustworthy than humans in general, is baffling but entertaining.

[@陳嘉宇-y4q]

Emi : Dinner’s on the way , my friend

[@BrianAchterberg928]

@Damien Paz Yes they do but they bite on the initial strike and then holds it’s prey in its mouth while it constricts around the prey and still holds the prey in it mouth to make sure it doesn’t escape until the snake doesn’t feel the animal struggling or breathing any more. Then it uncoils itself and repositions the animal in its mouth to make it easier to swallow.

[@BrianAchterberg928]

@Damien Paz True, they can’t swallow one whole but they have found human legs and arms in some.
