It is because they don't don't know alot about them. They might think they are slimy, or they might bite them even if they're not venomus. Alot of people fear snakes for this reason.

Snakes generally don't harm people out of nowhere.Usually when snakes attack people it is out of self-defense and they feel endangered or threatened.Snakes usually hunt other animals and depending on their size you are not on there menu or agenda.Some larger snake may however eat you.....not kidding if they are hungry enough and large enough a snake might be desprate enough to eat you.But mos that size eat boar,deer,and other fair sized mammals

hope this was helpful sorry if it wasnt...

The only way to answer that question is to ask a snake. However, judging from the development of rattles on some snake tails, it probably would be the fear of getting stepped on by hooves of four-legged animals.

I can tell you humans, they only seem fearless because they need to to survive when cornered.

The reason that people are so frightened of snakes is because they hiss and some have venom which is poisoness so their frightened of being bitten.

Fear is what keeps many animals alive, including snakes. If snakes did not feel fear they would not hide or flee from predators.
