I am disheartened every time i hear or see a report on how "dangerous" snakes are. As others have said here, it is not the animal that is dangerous, it is the owners and their lack of proper knowledge of their pets that are the danger. I have been around snakes since i was a little girl, thanks to my father,and every snake that my father had in our house while i was growing up was an absolute joy to have! Thanks to my dad, i have become a responsible snake owner myself, and i share that joy when my six year old niece visits. She has held every one of my snakes, except my baby sand boas, she has even held my Brazilian Rainbow Boa (under my supervision of course) and the look of delight on her face when she is holding them is priceless=)
