Posted by: Paul Hollander at Wed Apr 12 17:45:29 2006 [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by Paul Hollander ] For what it's worth, salmonella bacteria from various reptiles have made people sick. So there is a chance that something people have could get transferred to a snake and make them sick. However, people are more interested in what they can get from other creatures than in what they can give other creatures. So while a human pathogen might be able to make a snake sick, I'm not aware of any documented cases. I also think that most human pathogens would not affect snakes. It's just that "most" is not the same as "all". Hope this helps. [ Hide Replies ]
