I don't think you can really use a clip from wikipedia on this one. Tamed yes, domesticated........not so sure. My pythons will not strike or bite me, but you take one from the wilds of Africa, would it be more inclined to do that? Maybe.......at least my wild boas are always pissed off and the ones I've raised are very nice. And if the posts above is correct, what do you say to a dog that turns on it's owner? I'm riding the fence lol.
