Reactions in social circle

I completely agree! But that line was included in the article at legit news sites. It's very irresponsible reporting and just seems to be inserted for shock value; it is irrelevant to the story.

It's like saying, "A 4 month old jack russell terrier has been stolen. Some dogs can grow to 44" paw to shoulder and weigh up to 130 pounds".

Whenever a snake story is reported or snakes are involved in a TV show, etc. they will insert as much shock value as they can squeeze in. Anything snake or reptile related that is geared towards the general public will be filled with fear-mongering and misinformation. It's just like anything else in a culture, it's included to cement values.
In this case it's the fear of snakes.
