Big Snake photo



Someone tried to pass it off as a "cow" dinner, but even though it's not, that's one good sized snake!

AK Nimrod,

Do you know anything about that picture? If so, was the fence wired for electricity?

It looks to me like the wires that pass through the white insulators on the posts are hot, the others that are in contact with the posts aren't but they would provide an excellent ground.

I hate snakes and electricity so this one really gives me the willies.

While I hate snakes myself and shudder every time I think about those fangs, and there are a lot, I also shudder to think that the poor thing was electricuted by those wires. That would suck.

Of course, if I were there while it was being zapped, about the only way I would help it is to swiftly put it out of its misery with a 12 ga. blast.

strike at it, check out the teeth on this big boy!"
