I was giving a presentation this past Saturday on exotics and as usual all of the adults stayed in the back by the door while the kids came up and interacted with the animals and asked great questions.
One adult asked a question that almost made me lose it. I wanted to strangle him.
I was holding a children's python and explaining that not all pythons are large and they can make great pets. One adult asked if they "really attack children". I was like what? He wanted to know if it was called a children's python because it was known to attack and kill kids and if this was just a different name for a burmese python.
I really wanted to slap this guy right there.
How can you be so stupid to think that because it's called a children's python that means it eats kids? WTH! The snake I brought was an adult male and was only about 3 feet long.
We really need to start culling the stupid people in society.
