You'll get a whole lot of different responses from people who don't know any better. My favorite has to be "Aren't you afraid they'll eat your baby?"
Couldn't it have been a combination of the two? I mean, come on. Some people aren't really smart. There's a college campus around here that has a huge domesticated rabbit overpopulation problem. Kids got tired of taking care of their buns and released them and they went and made a whole bunch of babies. Why wouldn't someone do the same with a snake?

And the baby eating comment is one of my personal favs
