Okay, I know I'm a bit late but you might be a ball python keeper if you plan on becoming a high school biology teacher for five major reasons.
1) You love science
2) You can bring your snakes to work with you
3) You can use your snakes as a perfect example of how awesome genetics are
4) You get summers aka expo season off every year
5) You can educate a younger generation about how to ACTUALLY take care of balls
