On top of all the snake phobia stuff we grew up with there is now the added annoyance of media drooling over any predatory animal behavior. I have gotten so sick of tv programs beating watchers over the head with chatty humans in khaki shorts prancing around in exotic locales annoying the local fauna. I don't know very many people talented enough to convince a bearded dragon to bite them in the face. I watched an Animal Planet program titled "the Beauty of Snakes" and was so irritated by the constant narration droning on and on about snakes being "deady killers from birth" etc. etc. I almost wrote to the network. The take-home message of the program was not beauty, but once again about how ruthless, calculating, and mechanical snakes are. Well, even that cute fluffy kitten you can get at any animal shelter is a predator (and is a lot less discerning about it too)!
