>>5166538Obsessed with pitbulls aren't you
>>5166538Based. None of these animals destroy/invade property and give you rabies or other horrible diseases that can easily jump to humans.>Salmonellaeasily treatable and you have to be retarded to get this.

>>5166538>(more kills than any reptile in the US does per year BTW)Didn’t believe this and thought I would deboonk it. Turns out reptiles as an entire group only kill 5-6 people per year in America. I thought for sure that gators/crocs in swamplands were killing a hundred people every year.
>>5166727Gators are chill animals. They don't deliberately go out there way to actively hunt people or large prey.
Luv critters, reptiles and mammels alike'ate slobbering shitbeasts Simple as
>>5166727gators are extremely docile, this isnt africa, where everything has to contend with hippos, or australia, like sure dont be an 80 year old, or a dog, or drunk near the water, but they cant do anything if youre just aware. if anything standing tall freaks them the fuck out and they run. you have to go out of your way and be enfeebled to get killed by a gator, compared to something like a bear or a mountain lion where youre just fucked.and if anything those deaths are probably from some retards fucking around with a rattlesnake intentionally for tiktok or something, because snakes are very reluctant to strike, let alone envenom someone. theyre more than content to just sit there and not let their presence be known, so you have to be wanting for that darwin award
>>516672799% of reptiles, even large predatory ones will leave you alone if you leave them alone or steer clear. Very little are as nearly as dangerous to be around than large mammalian predators or the basic shitbull.
>>5166881youre fucking stupid. just another braindead moron who learned to hate pitbulls from dogsbite.org, which is run by a psychotic jew con artist spouting fake facts and figures that she pulled out of her ass. i kill poisonous snakes on sight and you cant do anything about it, scalenigger. pitbulls are the master race.
Based. But since we're talking about reptiles: what's wrong with this slow worm I found in my garden? It didn't have eyes and it appeared to have had only bone of its upper jaw exposed. Genetic or bad molt/infection?
>>5166538I use the snake argument to justify pattern-recognition (some retards call this "racism")>I don't need to get bit by every snake on earth to be allowed to say I don't like snakesNobody has ever been able to factually refute this beyond "racism hurts the feelings of shit-colored people"
>>5167061>poltard and a snake haterholy cringe
>>5167056Lizards, Snakes, Turtles and Crocodiles don't go out there way to permanently disfigure toddlers out of nowhere. Shitbulls and other fundamentally violent shitmutts need to be culled and euthanized to extinction.
Blah blah, boo hoo, I see a snake I'm mulching the slimy poisonous little fuck with my mower. Cry about it scalefags.
>>5166538It's another "sharks are less dangerous than dogs" episode (including rabies cases in india)You are unintelligent and I'm not explaining why
>>5166538We're mammals so we show a stronger affinity to other mammals. We probably have a genetic fear of snakes cause they can kill us. When we were evolving all it took was one venomous snake to pop out and we were dead, so it's probably imprinted in our dna to be scared of them
>>5167288Its not it is 100% learned behavior same with spiders. If your a baby and you see your mom overreacting like a woman does to a bug or snake the screeching traumatizes you and you associate it with the animal. The starbust shape and hypnotic eye memes are copes pussies made up to explain why they cant just do an afternoon of exposure therapy and get over it
>>5167294>w-why don't you just go to therapy to train yourself to love snakes???lmao no thank you i think i'll just continue killing snakes
>>5167309Dont care what you do fucko just correcting you for being stupid and wrong
>>5167309That would require you to go actually outside
>>5167317correcting me with what, your baseless headcanon that instinctive fears don't exist?sorry bud but that's complete nosenseevery animal displays instinctive behaviorsthere are simply too many things that can easily kill you for you to be expected to deal with every one via learned behavioryou would be dead long before you came close to learning about every potential deadly threat>>5167318chopped up 3 (that i noticed) when i was mowing the grass last weekmy monke ancestors who died from snake bites are looking down on me with pride every time i avenge their deaths by exterminating soulless cold blooded monsters
I'll kill rattlesnakes on sight if I have anything handy to kill them with. All other snakes get a free pass.
>>5167217>(including rabies cases in india)How does this argument apply? Indians get killed by venomous snakes and crocodiles in the tends of thousands. So I could just as well argue that hating reptiles is Indian-coded.
>>5167319Are we supposed to be clapping? Praising you for butchering random reptiles? Are you going to move on to mammal victims?
>>5167198>t. Catfag still seething over the python post
>>5167330and that only happened because they bred cobras
>>5167344You can't clap, because disgusting snake tail typed this post...
>>5167414God they really will put their dick in anything won't they?
>>5167058I've seen fungal infections do this beforeAlways sterilize outdoor litter you put in your tank for this very reason
>>5167111Tell that to little Tiffany after she loses a hand to necrosis because a rattlesnake was curled up under her bicycle when she grabbed it.People cite low death rates from venomous snake bites but glaze over all the lost fingers and hands.Imagine grandma and her failing eyesight walking out to her car after Thanksgiving dinner and stepping on a 5 foot timber rattler. What do you think is going to happen? Are you going to mention leaving that snake you encountered 2 days ago alone because "it wasnt bothering anybody" at grandma's funeral?If you didnt live in an apartment and you encountered wildlife on a regular basis you'd understand.>pic related. Working on a jacket. I think i have 13- i figure i need 2 more 5 footers.
>5167586They do everything they possibly can to warn you they're there. They even try to get away before biting most of the time. And often they don't envenomate, they dry bite, because venom is very costly to make. You're just a scared brown and/or a psychopath who wants to hurt animals but is too big a pussy to go after animals that aren't socially acceptable to kill. I hope you break an ankle in the woods and die of exposure you hysterical faggot.
>>5167586>People cite low death rates from venomous snake bites but glaze over all the lost fingers and hands.Dog bites cause hundreds of thousands of people to seek medical treatment per year. Just in the US. Similarly, cat scratch diseases lead tens of thousands of people to seek treatment.They don't even log how many mini cockapoos and doodles get eaten alive and ultimately killed by the ear cropped pittie princess down the street. I would put money on many thousands of people getting their dogs killed by out of control pitbulls every year.
>>5167330>So I could just as well argue that hating reptiles is brown-coded.I have great news for you then!It is.
Why is your fatass blind abuella hobbling to her car alone anyway? She planning to drive? That rattlesnake could save the lives of a White family on their way to (Protestant) church.
>>5166538Lizard claws typed this post
>>5166538Self hating mammaloid
>>5167594>, they dry bite, because venom is very costly to makeAhh this AI wive's tale trash again.Majority of bites are envenomated. Young snakes will even dump their entire venom sack into a person.Theres a major difference between hiking through a national park and coming across a rattlesnake living 50 miles from the nearest house and finding one in your front yard. A rattlesnake can smell the difference between a human being in the area 1 day ago or 5 days ago. If one is found in an area with constant human presence then it is more than just a nuisance animal, its dangerous because it no longer fears humans- no different than a rabid coyote.Stay in your lane apartment dweller, maybe you'll get out of life with all your digits intact.
>>5167599>whataboutismSo I should walk around with an umbrella during a thunderstorm because more people are killed by car crashes than lightning strikes?
>>5168819It's not "whataboutism" when the point of the thread is that an intense fear/hatred of reptiles is not justifiable if you're looking at the statistics.>I should walk around with an umbrella during a thunderstorm because more people are killed by car crashes than lightning strikes?No, you should just leave reptiles the fuck alone. Because they will leave you alone.
>>5168900A rattlesnake killed my cat.Ill kill every one that I find and theres nothing you can do about it.Perfectly legal in my state, I dont even need a hunting license to blow their heads off.
>>5168928Your cat shouldn't been outside unsupervised in the first place. That snake probably did a huge favor for a whole generation of birds and other native creatures.
>>5168928actual laper, because its illegal to kill rattlesnakes
>>5168943How many times can you be wrong in a single thread?https://gadnrle.org/laws-native-wildlife
>>5169051you dont live in georgia, youre a retard larper
>>5168943You can even kill most species of rattlesnakes in Commiefornia.(Red.diamond ia now protected)
>>5169070that fact that have you have look which states you can kill rattlesnakes means you are some retarded, yuppie larper
>>5168943>its illegal to kill rattlesnakesWhere? On my property I'll kill them and any other nuisance species if I want to.
>>5169071What kind of retarded ass faggot mindset is this?!Of course ive looked up what states you can kill rattlesnakes in.If I go visit a friend in upstate New York I know that timber rattlesnakes are protected. Killing one is illegal. And thats called fucking POACHING.Sit your ass down and shut the fuck up urbanite.
>buried a bunch of boulders and concrete debris in my backyard a few years back to create a hibernation chamber>mfw now have more snakes, lizards, and toads than ever beforePeople who hate herps have no soul
>>5169069Did you know that timber rattlers / cane breaks have distinct color morphs dependent on locale?
>>5169384Either top middle or middle right is how they look in West Virginia. Dark as hell.>>5169105I'd kinda like to have some boulders in my backyard for that. Get some buddies showing up.Been getting worm snakes and rough earth snakes, but not seeing much else. A black rat showed up, but he was full of some food so I didn't mess with him so he wouldn't puke.
>>5169389Georgia is top right or bottom left depending on where within the state you are.
Killed another rattlesnake last night. Fucker was trying to slither up next to me while working on a tractor. Not today pal.
>>5168928Kill all of them, it won't bring your cat back :)
>>5170452Got 2 new cats.No rattlesnakes left to kill. I have to find them on friend's properties now.
>>5166554Curb stomp lizards into red skid marks on concrete Behead all snakes with my lawnmower Sell all crocs for commercialized handbagsGive away all turtles to chinese wet markets for soup
>>5166538>harmlessno, venomous snakes are not harmless. Even pet venomous snakes are always somewhat unpredictable. The same kind of people who like handling venomous snakes also like pit bulls and other stupid reckless alt masculine shit
>>5170523>Sell all crocs for commercialized handbagsI have about 100 skins leftover from when I did custom interiors.
>>5166693meant to do that btw
>>5167594>bee enters store by accident>coworker shrieks and starts freaking the fuck out>simps come to her rescue and kill itMeanwhile i let the things land on my hands to lap up the sweat. These people were taught by morons and pop culture that you need to act a certain way around certain things, and they will stick to the script at all costs
>>5166693>Snake? SNAKE? SNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKKKKKKKEEEEEEEE
>>5171587if you had it in your hand long enough for it to drink sweat why didnt you simply let it outsidealso some people are very allergic to bees and could die if they get stung, and based on your posting style i doubt you know anything about your coworkers beyond a vague idea of what they look like so i wouldnt trust you to know about that
>>5168928Mate you have a shitbull, if you actually had a cat the nigger dog would've at the damn cunt
>>5166693>shadman
>>5167056tranny faggot, you and your friends are men
>>5171600Poorly phrased, that's just my usual encounters with them, not that specific instanceI'm deathly vulnerable to bleach but as long as i don't chug it i'll be fine. Bees are similarly situationally dangerous[spoiler]p.s. while they were congratulating themselves on a job well done, one of them asked her and no she wasn't allergic, she just hated bees[/spoiler]
>>5167198keep up the good work, citizen
