Cool picture. I did not say it was impossible to tame one. But first, it takes some guts to get over the bad sterotype of them. Than, wild ones are likely to take a while to lose their nervousness. They do calm down and become tame (like your picture shows). Sometimes it takes getting bitten a few times before they begin to get real trusting. It really depends on the snake. They do tend to retain an alert deminior, and can be spooked by sudden movements. I would, personally, be little nervous with my coachwhip around my daughter like that. But, in a calm environment, I don't see the harm.
Coachwhips come in reds, browns, yellows, albinos, black, half-and-half, barred, stripped, and I bet if you designed them you would get tons of different morphs.
