    no there is no gene for any of us to love snakes or any other herp. just like there is no gene for a person who is deftly afraid of snakes that there kids will hate snakes. it is a learned response kids don't fear snakes cause they aint heard the misinformation about them ones that do hear that info usually not always grow up to hate them. if it was true to have a gene to like or hate snakes then i would hate them as biggest part of my family hates them

    kind of like kids who like liver and kids who don't my cousin always told his son it was chopped steak and he loved it then one day at school or grandmas he was told it was liver he refused to eat it again after that even though he ate it at least once a week up until then and always asked for more till he was told it's real name
