To bring this back up to the top, since my oldest Savu nailed me again over the weekend... IMO posting gory bite pictures is a bad idea. OTOH posting that bites do happen, especially with certain species, should be discussed so that people know what they are getting into before bringing a critter home.
Posting that neonates are often nippy/defensive along with methods to chill them out should be discussed. Posting about hook training your large/foody snakes to help avoid a food-response bite should be discussed. Posting about how to get out of a food response bite when it happens definitely should be discussed so people learn how not to make matters worse.
BUT
How do you hold these discussions without mentioning that snakes bite?
