RE: Happy New Year to All - Welcome to 2018!
I like the treeless x-mas tree, but love the snake (and your attitude to life!) I think even being poisonous shouldn't be a reason to kill it, otherwise what would we do with members of our own species? Thanks for the update, and wish you all an amazing new year too!
Very good point! I know people much more poisonous than any snake ;p
I can understand the 'manly' mindset of protecting your family and eliminating nearby poisonous snakes. In our area jaguares and smaller cats like tigrillos are almost extinct (practically every non-bird animal is endangered here, and even some birds too) because they cause damage to livelihoods, and can be quite dangerous too!
I know in the long term we need to change our relationship with nature, and I believe we are working toward that. I'm not always sure what to say to my neighbor, who has a four year old son, today.
