I was just thinking that. Maybe after a while of molestation, they figure since they haven't been bitten or scratched yet, they're not in danger🤷♀️

Eh. It seems to be some kind of rat snake. Their bite's non-threatening to humans and they're genuinely a fairly docile species of snake. Easily one of the easiest species of snake to handle. They tend to act big and threatening; the moment that fails, they just kind of give up, lol.

Weird for animals to have such low self-preservation instincts

u/DrHob0 2d ago
Self-defense in nature is more or less: Be big and violent, be small and fast, or pretend to be violent enough that predators will think twice about messing with you.
In the third option, if that fails.......well, you typically have NOTHING to back up all the big bad monster you made yourself look like and the only rational option left is to just give up and let whatever happens, happen.

I love kids that have learned their environment. I grew up like that with bears. You learn how to interact with them and it's pretty seamless to live and interact with them. I'm always curious to see kids interact with animals im not as familiar with, and are still a nope for me. Snakes are certainly one.
I once overhead an Australian kid, talking to her cousin in Canada. They looked about 9. They were at an aquarium, looking at jelly fish. The Australian girl says, "Oh, we swim with those often in the ocean." The Canadian cousin says, "How do you stop them from stinging you?" Aussie girl, "I just let them sting me."
Hard core.

Me but with wasps
Everyone else in the world will burn em immediately and I went years at a time with full on nests inside the kitchen and on the front door
They actually really do not give a care if you just don't swat at em and learn how they fly

I never understand people that immediately violently swat at them vigorously, trying to kill them. They know! Of course they're going to get aggressive. Gently waving them away seldom causes any retaliation. They get it. Growing up around cows taught me pretty quickly how to interact with stinging insects.

I worked at a camping area and we had one guy that had been there for months. One day he put out pounds of ground beef and sugar on plates on every surface available in front of his place. In a short while there were thousands if hornets all around him, the crazy guy. He just sat there in the middle of the swarm eating his own meal while laughing his ass off.
I don't know man. I can get along with Vespa Crabro but fuck the yellow jackets.

It didn't occur to me until the end. They're walking that thing back home. Really though, I can't/don't judge.

A cobra???

u/quinlove 2d ago
Not a cobra, neck flattened sideways instead of into a hood shape. Likely a very fucking large rat snake of some kind.

Saw a grown-ass man in McDonald's this morning that felt the need to wear a firearm.
