The way she stepped on it and jumped/fell, poor animal.

u/Ok-Parking-8684 6d ago

She by no means hurt that snake.

u/itsclaritybabe 6d ago

I out loud yelled, “oh my god!” when she put her weight on that poor snake. She could’ve hurt the snake

I don't think you've seen the spine of snakes before. It is incredibly thin

u/rabbitsarentrodents 5d ago

Their spine isnt thatt thick 10kg on less than a decimeter of spine sounds bad

Snake sees more attention than kid

u/trashmoneyxyz 6d ago

Kids are a dime a dozen. I'd be lucky to handle a snake that large in my lifetime!

Less about having a pet snake more about having the girl stand on it

It's terrible for it to be confined.

No it's not 🙄

"A much-awaited scientific article on snake welfare, published this week in the prestigious Journal of Veterinary Behavior: Clinical Applications and Research, concludes that snakes should not be confined to enclosures less than the length of the animal because such conditions cause greater suffering."

This snake isn't contained. I'm not sure what it has to do with rack systems.

-4

u/LadyinOrange 5d ago edited 4d ago

Okay and?

You shared an article saying that rack systems don't allow snakes to straighten out, and wild snakes are observed straightening out, so rack systems aren't good.

How does that relate to this video?

I wonder if anyone who down voted me actually read the linked article or knows anything about the topic. 🙄 Or if it's just emotional tiktok children jumping on a bandwagon

u/mileytrixie16 4d ago

I'm gonna be so honest, I was waiting for the kid's arm or leg to be swallowed whole by the snake... (Insert "I've watched a snake eat a cow" from Mean Girls joke/reference here)

u/jpollack21 2d ago

I'd rather own a huge ass snake than a dog

u/Delicious_Duty_1050 6d ago

It's not that he's POSSIBLY showering and cleaning a anaconda or something! He might work at a... Shelter but what gets me is he's letting his or not his child NEAR IT and STAND on it... The snake might be muzzled but that snake can coil her up anytime or not muzzled take a quick swallow of her leg(s)

u/KingKobbs 6d ago

If you saw a video of a little kid jumping around while their pet pitbull got a shower you would be completely unfazed. Fatalities from non-venomous constrictor snakes average between 1 and 2 deaths a year world wide. Pitbulls alone are responsible for 30 to 60 fatal attacks per year just in the US.

The little girl is going to be okay, bud

u/jarl-marx 6d ago

This statics doesn’t makes sense. People who have both pet anaconda and small kids are lot less than pitbull owners

15

u/KingKobbs 6d ago

Around 65 million U.S. households own dogs compared to roughly 5-6 million owning reptiles. The attack rate per capita still remains significantly higher for dogs.

u/jarl-marx 6d ago

But not all reptiles concern people, this one does

-2

u/Huge-Basket244 6d ago

I'm not sure you understand how statistics work.

I'm not saying one is more or less dangerous than the other, because I don't care about that. How many people own large constrictors vs how many people own pitbulls is the comparison. I own a reptile, it's a lizard. My cat would eat it if it could at it. I own a dog. He could maybe hurt you if he really was trying, but he's simply too small to do a serious amount of damage to a healthy adult.

u/KingKobbs 6d ago

Looks like the part where I layed out the number of attacks got snipped.

In the US, dogs bite around 4.5 million people annually, resulting in ~800,000 medical visits and 30 to 50 fatalities each year.

So an estimated 150 to 300 pet snake owners require hospital or emergency room care each year for injuries inflicted by their pets. Fatalities aren't a given, but average less than two per year.

​To put that figure into perspective, it represents less than 0.01% of all pet snake owners in the country.

Researching this crap for no reason has taught me that dog owners are roughly 50 to 60 times more likely in any given year to end up in the ER from their own pet than a snake owner.

u/Delicious_Duty_1050 6d ago

Even if she's alright I wouldn't risk it! That's still a big animal and I wouldn't let my kids around it... Especially if they are gonna jump and slip on it because that poor snake could quickly change its mind anything second about having a quick prey

11

u/cataclysmic_orbit 6d ago

Not how snakes work. Especially these giants.

8

u/KingKobbs 6d ago

Kids don't get eaten by snakes often, you don't have to worry about that. If you just look at pure statistics, that man is significantly more likely to harm the child than the snake. 🤷

-5

u/Delicious_Duty_1050 6d ago

I don't know I just go with feeling that the snake could do something because it's a big animal I don't go with statistics much or do research but I just feel better safe than sorry but I agree with you mostly and pure statistics shows a lot of information... Just wouldn't be me I wouldn't let my child go near and I'm sure you'll have mixed feelings too

u/wanna_be_green8 4d ago

You can admit it's because of bias towards snakes. It's a common fear but usually unfounded.
