one thing I don't get, how the heck did the snake get past both lines. It's as if some one turned off the power and waited for him.

this might seem far fetched but maybe the snake's skin/scales work pretty good as an insulator, and got shocked only when his mouth tissue made contact with the wire

snakes freak me out, especially big ones which eat deer and elephants. Fuck that, I'm glad it's dead.

Plus, they usually use fork and knife and don't swallow complete bodies.

:( that's not true: my brother trusts me with his two cats and one of my best friends trusts me with his 2 dogs and 1 minipig. I would never hurt them, but I would also never swallow them after crushing their bones.

I dunno, if I had to choose between a death by a big mouth with sharp teeth/having my body squished to death by a boa/python, and being born into human slavery with a slaughterhouse fate, I'd take my chances in the wild ;)

he might not trust you with his pets, but do you think that little cockroach that lives under your sink would ever trust you with its nephew?
