Although snakes have a variety of ways to protect themselves, probably the most common way to make rid of a predator is by biting. The feared "snake bite" however, is not the only of telling someone that they are unwanted. Secretory glands in the snakes lower abdominal area, (near the tail) rests liquid that not only has a putrid enough smell to void off other animals, but humans as well. It is a whitish yellow discharge that allows the snake to shake off unwanted visitors, especially predators, giving it a few seconds to escape to safety under a limb, behind a rock or possibly sneak into a crevasse or swamp.
