Do snakes feel emotions and/or love?

[littleindiangirl]

instinct wouldn't be something that would cause a food item imprint. Eat or die is an instinct. they can imprint on things that do not even exist in there natural habitat. so in this case i do not agree

Yes, but there is also conditional learning....

if this were entirely true. then the BP would be unable to imprint on a food item. as it would not remember it.

and we all know that they can and will imprint on a particular prey item. Would require some form of memory one would think.

Are we now arguing if snakes have memory?
