im not trying to be mean by saying this, but that doesnt look like defense. there appears to be a bite on the snake, near the tail that could easily be fatal. also that is possibly the easiest snake to identify. the pic also says they had time to leave it alone and be on their way. it just seems like a straight cruelty thing right there. itll be funny to watch the dog rip the snake apart. if you hve a shot like the first one, theres no need for the second pic, or the story. finally, those snakes never bite. ive run into many of them in the wild, and theyre some of the easiest wild snakes to work with, they just puff and blow air. nothing is excusable as to not trying to restrain the dog, especially since that snake couldnt have been more than 2 feet, giving them a lot of room to pull the dog off. theres no excuse for any snake to die like that, especially if it could have been left alone.
