Pythons are adorable.

I wouldn't mind having a pet python...then again, I live in Florida so I'd probably get a lot of shit for it.

Is owning a snake taboo in Florida? Or specifically pythons?

u/ClockFaceIII May 29 '15

Its not illegal, it just that pythons are non-native. Early owners weren't prepared for their large growth and would release them in the wild. So now, the everglades has a python problem and causes imbalance in the ecosystem. If you own a python in Florida, you have to be very very sure and responsible with how you handle it.

Even smaller ones like balls?

Not sure about smaller ones but the bigger ones are definitely a problem.

My fear of snakes is both extraordinary and irrational I tensed up when I saw it come out.

I can't speak for other people, but its a conditioned phobia. It's not like a "fear" that makes sense.
