    I can see your point about endangering oneself, but when you are dealing with an aggressive snake that is unlikely to back down and slither off, which has been my experience with corals in the area, it’s a different situation.

    Look, it’s ok if you don’t agree with me, all I am saying is that I have actual experience in the area and I can see how it would be warranted based on what I know. It isn’t popular, but its my experience.

    It's not so much that I don't agree with you...I don't even believe you. If it chased you, it wasn't a coral snake. Few snakes act aggressively. I've seen a coachwhip
    come towards me (& have heard the same from others) but few snakes like to tangle with humans at all...at least in this country. BTW, coachwhips are harmless, &
    that one was being mobbed by birds until I chased off the birds...so he was in a panic when I got there & didn't realize I was helping him. I did not get bit...I walked
    away.
