New Python video on Fox News

RoyerReptiles Aug 18, 2009 01:31 PM

Hello all,

I was just able to check out a new Burmese Python video on Fox News regarding the problem in the Everglades. It's actually one of the few that I've seen that haven't been full of bad information.

http://www.foxnews.com/video/index.html

It's still very new right now, and should be at the top of the "Latest Video" tab. The title of the video is "Exotic Pet Battle".

What got me the most on that video was that woman letting her snake crawl around her babies and the babies chew on the snake. That is definitely not the actions of a responsible Burmese python owner.

I agree, that scene with the lady and the kids was pretty bad starting with her dragging the snake into the house and ending with the kid munching on it's tail and all the scenes in between. I get that she was trying to show how "safe" they are but seriously not worth risking the lives of her children. The PIJAC guy was very well spoken. Very calm, very factual, that part was nicely done. The outdoor shot of the snake going by the camera was nice, loved the iridescent rainbows on his scales in the sunlight.
