Assalam allikum dear sisters,
A big welcome to a younger sister, saloma22. Nice to have you hear on the forum.
What a very curious question you asked. It is nice to hear about everyone snake stories. I have a few of my own. But if I seen a snake now, I would be absoloutly quiet and not disturb it at all. As sankes are really scared of us, that is why they attack. And I would calmly walk away from the snake.
I live in Australia, so there is heaps of snakes out in the bush. Mainly the brown snake and the red belly black snake. He really has a red belly. Well my mum had one in her house one day. Luckly none of the kids were home. She spotted it in the hallway and nearly steped on it. She went to the phone and phoned the police and they said they didn't remove snakes from the home. So they gave her a wild life number. My mum rang that and they said they'll be over shortly. What they do is the capture the snake and then relase it back to nature. Well after this my mum left the fron door open and the snake let it self out of the door. I think it was being very courtious don't you?
When I was about six my grandfather use to take my cousin and I on bush walks. I was just standing there, having a rest I guess and I seen a black belly black snake in an old tyre. I told my grandfather and his said don't worry, it isn't. But I was so insitant that it was, we had to go home. I think my imagination was over active.
My grandfather farm cat killed a snake and bought the remains to the front door step as a present. I don't know how it didn't get bitten.
Well snakes are not that scary if you just leave them alone they'll leave you alone. But I don't know about Intuition cobras though.
