Hey guys, I've just seen something in the tv guide that I thought you may be interested in, it's called fatal attractions, it's on animal planet on Sunday, at 21:00. It's a series about people that keep dangerous animals as pets, this week it features a man who was attacked and killed by his 13 ft python. I think it may be worth a watch.

Yea me too :). Last week featured a woman who kept venomous snakes. She had a gaboon Viper that she let roam around her house while she cleaned its viv. When she went to pick it up to put it back it bit her. They showed actual footage of the scene where she was found, the amount of blood was rediculous!

Seen these series before, not a fan. They have a tenancy to show snake keepers as irresponsible idiots as well as snakes as mindless killers. :-(

The blog says that the python first bit the owner's face before constricting his throat until dead. It does say in a feeding frenzy..so if that is the case I would that was stupidity on the keeper's part.

You gotta admit Kelf, there are alot of irresponsible owners out there, musch like Staffie owners..enoigh to give these animals a bad reputation.

That's what I was going to say. The whole reason they make the programme on these people is because they have been irresponsible. I know what you're saying in a way though kelf, doesn't paint the best picture for someone who doesn't know so much about snakes.

My thoughts are that first owner shouldn't of had a enclosure that big it said he walked into the cage and banged his head therefore this enclosure is far to big

They guy who makes anti venom is passionate and Iknow if I have been bit few times by venmouse snake I would quit this guy has Proberly saved a lot of life's ( and his wife got bitten by venmouse lizared didn't know you could get them)


As for the overall program I thought it was interesting I can see we're kelf is coming from

For the record just like to tell everyone my favourite venmouse snake is the copper head abousltly adore that snake for some strange reason

I think the gila monster is a venomous lizard not sure of any others though, i would think a Burmese adult would need an enclosure that size a petshop close to me has a walk in enclosure

You couldn't blame the snake, it said he half starved it and kept him cold. If he was idiot enough to show off when drunk..well..
