Are people scared of snakes

Answer 1

I'm afraid I can't give you an exact statistic on this, but I can tell you that it's incredibly rare. Not only that, but almost all casualties caused by pet snakes can be avoided by simply being smart about how you handle your pet.

First of all, don't get a venomous snake or a large constrictor until you have a reasonable amount of experience working with snakes. For venomous snake, you're going to want one EXPERIENCED handler per 4 feet of snake, at LEAST.

Most pet snake casualties are caused by constrictions, not bites, so use common sense. Don't try to medicate a 15ft python on your own. Remember, a snake's body (especially a constrictor) is pretty much pure muscle. It's not too hard for it to overpower you.

Things like garter snakes and corn snakes aren't going to kill you.

Answer 2

I heard that about 90% of people are afraid of snakes, but i don't see why people are afraid of them. Snakes are not scary. They can even be killed by mice, their own prey. People might say snakes are dangerous in the desert, but that is not true. Snakes might chase after you in the desert because they wanted shade in your shadow. i saw a snake in my backyard yesterday. I looked at it closely and it did not seem to bother. When i told my friend about it, my friend was so scared that she picked up a rock and threw it at the snake. The snake did not even bother to attack back! Snakes are not scary!
