Do snakes feel emotions and/or love?

Reptiles do feel emotion but not love! You can see when they are afraid of something or "angry", aren't those emotions too?
Yes I do think that they feel emotions, but like I said not love, just because they are not social animals and have no need for an emotion like love. ;)

Reptiles don't feel emotion. Humans tend to project our emotions onto our pets, but that doesn't make it reality.

I am by no means an expert... but as someone with a degree in Biology, a sister who is a Vet, and a mother that studies Neurology, here is my take:

Snakes can't feel what you or I would describe as love. They can be stimulated or their behavior can be hormonaly influenced by things, scared of them, non-threatened by things, drawn to others, etc. What they lack is introverted, abstract, forward thinking... the kind that I see as being heavily influential in and inseparable from our definitions of the emotions we face as humans. "Emotions" are not the same as predictable responses to stimuli. Realize that a plant can perform the tasks listed above.

That said, I think the point is null because I believe all living things are deserving of a decent standard of life, even if those standards are mere conjurations of our advanced thinking. A thinking that, incidently, lends itself to altruistic behavior and empathetic manifestations... but that's a discussion for another time :rolleyes:
