why you shouldnt care about being bit by a snake

i found this on rtb.com, and became aware that snakebites should be the least of anyones worries, just thought i'd share it here

After a few snake bites I no longer fear them, but I avoid them. However crocodilians scare the crap out of me. Most lizards (beardeds, uromastyx, iguanas, tegus, monitors) will do some damage too. I fear our feeder rats far more than I fear our largest carpet pythons too. I even spent some time in the hospital for a rat bite. Give me a snake bite any day!

Guests cannot see the photos. Bummer.

Snake bites are nothing compared to a mouse or guine pig bit

that is definitly true, i got bit by a rat when i was 12-13, and since then i havent touched one except to feed my snake lol, i did however hold a mouse for the first time since then a couple weeks ago, helped me get over my fear of rodents a little

Sucks I couldn't view the pics. Makes me wonder about my 2 1/2 gator downstairs :confused:

Just a regular American alligator. I'm not all that fancied much by him, as I grew up in Florida and I had a few living in my backyard, but my husband likes him. Whatever makes him happy right? Lol
