Most do not have to have that type of response, I think. Right? A dead dinner offering throughout the life of an animal may not elicit a barrel roll of a response after time, I think.
Wild vs. captive may be somewhat like apples vs. oranges in some instances.
Do you think that every wild snake would also react that way to a passing meal? Perhaps.
That behavior, in that instance, did not serve the predator well, or did it?
Will he now learn not to bite off more than he can chew, so to speak?
What can be learned from it?
