Good lord, no wonder people are so afraid of snakes...

Yeah AP has nailed it's last nail in the coffin. I will not be watching there shows any longer if it's not about dogs, cats, it's a horror story about animal attacks etc etc.

If it's not small and furry it's going to eventually rip you into pieces, didn't you know? I'll admit there are truth to some of the stupid stories (people buying tigers/lions/etc that they keep in their house just because they think they'll be like a housepet) but anything that has to do with reptiles it's about how they're cold-blooded killers, yada-yada-yada.

yeah i saw that show too. they were saying these snakes can actually EAT an adult human. obviously not true. very bad info in that show. I couldn't believe it.

I think there's only been a handful of accounts of them actually EATING people, and it's usually decades apart and the victims are usually small children.

I love how Brady Barr makes the other guy grab the head lol

I noticed how he grabbed it's TAIL too, nice and far away from the head. You go, Barr, make sure that tail doesn't escape!

I've refused to watch Animal Planet for the past few years. I don't enjoy any of the shows they air now. They have become the MTV of the animal world, steering away from their original purpose and airing only shows that they know will bring in the high ratings. Most people would rather hear horror stories than educational stories. I do enjoy Nat Geo Wild though. Their shows are well-informing, for the most part.

I would rather watch NatGeo Wild because they have a lot of shows that look wonderful (one is about python "wranglers", who are going after all the pythons in the Everglades and such to help them, not yell and scream "WOW LOOK AT THIS THING!! LOOK HOW BIG IT IS!!") but unfortunately my house has terrible wiring and some of the channels don't come in, NatGeo being one of them.
