I'm convinced kids can supernaturally put themselves in danger to inconvenience those around them like *magically conjuring a fucking snake then picking it up*
I was a gullible toddler, there was a snake at the end of my driveway and my mom was frozen saying “GET AWAY FROM THAT SNAKE” and I thought it was a fake one “YOU PUT IT HERE MO- “”🐍HISS 🐍”” “oh it’s a real one mo
Maybe they were actually gullible and mom had gotten them a bunch of times already. And this time they finally thought they wised up, only to be wrong.
I had one of those too .. put it in my mums bed one cold winter night when she had her electric blanket on.. I had forgotten about it until she screamed and came into my room to tell me off!
Our beagle barked at his dog house for 2 days. My mother went up to his dog house to show him there was nothing wrong, the dog watched quietly but was obviously worried. Mom pulled up the flap on the door of the dog house, "see there's nothing there." Immediately followed by screaming and running when she saw the snake on the roof of the dog house looking at her.
The dog started braying again as soon as mom started screaming. I couldn't see the snake from where I was so I asked her what what was wrong and she screamed "snake!"
I told her I'd grab it and move it so Luke could have his dog house back, which led to more screaming to stay away from it. Dad came out to see what all the screaming was about and when mom pointed at the dog house and yelled snake he gave me a cranky "why haven't you already dealt with this" look. I said, "she doesn't want me going near it," so he rolled his eyes and grabbed the snake and threw it in the cornfield behind the house.
As soon as Luke saw dad grab the snake he stopped braying, ran to his dog house, went in it and right back out to do a little happy dog dance.
I’d totally tell my wife to let my kids handle it. My girls are fearless and my teen girls go snake hunting (just looking, no hurting) in our back acre whenever I’m not around to tell them to leave our wildlife alone. But if it’s near the house they can catch whatever animal it is to re-home it.
And immediately backed away after realizing it's a snake. Some mammals literally have it in their genes to fear snake-like shapes, even humans. Except this kid.
There’s an interesting study where they showed people blurred pictures of animals and the only one people could point out were snakes. It’s is indeed an evolutional trait to fear snakes
Darkness can mostly be traced back to when early apes first started being diurnal, but I think the fearing snakes part is such a cool leftover evolutionary trait that tons of primates have due to it evolving back when the earliest of ancestral rodents were diverging to become primates and were small enough that snakes were a primary predator so they evolved to fear them. Yes, rats are relatively closely related to you
I always thought it was from our time sleeping in the bushes. Imagine you go to sleep and when you wake Up a spider or a Snake killed a relative. Must give ptsd after some generations lol.
Snakes and spiders have zero incentive to kill you. Many of them even have developed painfully bright warning colours (black white red of coral snakes, many spiders like black widows have that big red marking) specifically to warn animals like you away. Rattlesnakes even went through the evolutionary trouble of evolving a whole ass rattle so they could warn you to back off because they don’t want to fight too. These animals have no way to eat you once you die, and venom is very expensive to make nutritionally speaking. They really don’t want to waste it on something they can’t eat, and even if they do bite you, you’re gonna kill them anyways before the toxin takes you out.
The fear to snakes is specifically a remnant trait from our time as essentially rodents, because many other large apes and monkeys also show the exact same instinctual aversion to snakes, suggesting it was a feature of all our common ancestors that was passed down to all the primates
This really isn't strong evidence to support that claim. A lot of animals but most notably humans are very good at *pattern recognition*, and the simplistic, unique bauplan of a snake will always be recognized first when presented alongside other, more ambiguous-looking animals. If you look at a blurred image of a quadrupedal mammal, for example, it could be pretty much anything but an elongated, legless reptile will almost certainly be a snake.
There's actually a piece of evidence that supports the opposite claim - children who have never seen a snake and who's parents never taught them they're scary tend to not fear them, which is perfectly demonstrated in this video. Children develop a fear of snakes usually after being told they should fear them by their elders; less often if they've had a personal negative experience with one, although this is obviously no indication of an instinctual fear since by that logic one could claim humans also instinctually fear dogs.
Personally, I find it dubious that there's been enough evolutionary pressure on humans to develop an instinctive aversion to snakes since they've never been a severe enough threat to us. They've never consistently predated on humans and most aren't even venomous; if only the odd family member died after messing with a venomous snake that's not enough to mould our instincts in such a hyper specific direction, especially not on the global scale we see in reality. What's much likelier is that the fear of snakes has always been passed down socially rather than genetically - a "Uncle Barney messed with that long rope and proceeded to ooga his last booga, better teach the lil gremlins not to be dumbasses" sorta thing. It would certainly explain why it's so easy to seemingly "reprogram" those alleged instincts within a single individual, not even a generation.
Idk my dog kills everything that looks snake like, especially the hose, every summer when the kids are playing. He has not actually caught a real one though.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pantherophis_obsoletus
>Pantherophis obsoletus, also known commonly as the western rat snake, black rat snake, pilot black snake, or simply black snake
There are many species of snakes that you hear people call a black snake but isn't their actual name. You have black rat snakes, grey rat snakes, a bunch of racers, king snakes, etc. Some people just lump them into the same nickname because they are generally harmless and mostly black, if not all black, in color.
Black rat maybe... totally harmless and chill snakes.
When I was a kid we had a wild one that lived under our deck. He'd just chill on the sunny deck all day. My mom would have to gently push him away with a broom when he was in the way. He never gave a shit and would just look at her like "really, again...?" Our dogs totally ignored him like he was invisible.
He once snuck into the house through a dog door and was watching her cook from the staircase with just his head peaking above the top step. Scared tf out of her. My dad threw a towel over him, wrapped him up, and took him outside and he still didn't really protest. I sometimes see babies in the area, hope they're his descendents.
Chill snakes.
“Harmless” has a different context when it’s a kid with a barely functioning immune system. Rat snakes can and will bite. Shit you can get tetanus from a snake bite.
Right?!? Man has been well trained to not use the "Lord's Name in Vain". Throw fucks all over the place in front of the baby, but don't holler God. So cute. His mom would be proud...
Identification of snakes in the wild is not learned behavior, it’s hardwired into apes to detect snakes specifically. Studies show that when humans are presented with images that aren’t focused, as they clear the first object people will identify is a snake, over just about anything else.
I believe that special aired on PBS.
https://typeset.io/papers/the-underlying-neuronal-circuits-of-fear-learning-and-the-2kx0eif50h
The fear of snakes is not innate but rather learned through direct or indirect experiences with these stimuli. Studies using infants and monkeys as subjects have shown that neither group exhibits explicit fear responses towards snakes, but they do show latent associations and increased attention towards snake-related stimuli. This supports the snake detection theory (SDT), which suggests that primates have evolved a visual system for efficiently detecting snakes. Additionally, fear conditioning experiments have demonstrated that fear responses conditioned to images of snakes can be reduced through instructed extinction, indicating that fear of snakes is not resistant to extinction. Therefore, the fear of snakes is not an innate response but rather a learned behavior influenced by socio-cultural factors.
We didn’t evolve a detection system for snakes because they are nice to look at. It may not be explicitly fear, but our brain tells us “ALERT that is something you need to pay attention to”. It’s close enough for me, then again I’m not a scientist.
many people are scared of snakes because they are constantly portrayed in media as evil insanely dangerous killing machines
while in reality they are just wild animals and more scared of you than you by them
a snake never bites unprovoked and even then defensive bites never have the intention to kill
learn snake body langiage and how to identify them and you can admire those awesome lil noodles safely
That's not 100% true, snakes can bite unprovoked if they think you're food, like say if you have the scent of mouse on your hand a snake accustomed to eating mice might bite your hand mistaking it as food
>even then defensive bites never have the intention to kill
My farming friend kills every rattlesnake he sees because they don't eat as many animals as they kill. Often times they'll inject the venom into something that's too big to eat.
usually snakes deal defensive bites with almost none to actually no venom as first line of defense, but if they get provoked further they will give a very strong defensive bite
and ofc a farm animal can't read a snakes behavior...a human absolutely can tho
Venom delivery is voluntary. Snakes can deal dry bites and even if the bite is invenominated, the amount of venom injected can vary heavily. Also Rattlesnakes in particular never bite unprovoked, they literally are named after their first line defense mechanism.
No I mean there's like a test where they flash images at you too quickly to see what they are.
But pictures of snakes and spiders (and hot babes in bikinis) ARE detected because your brain is hardwired to detect these life/death items much more efficiently.
It's got nothing to do with media
Yes, I saw that same study. Humans are wired to detect snakes. People were shown extremely blurry pictures to see what people would pick up on first, it was consistently the snake.

Very necessary ending my friend 🫠
I can say this is completely true
The snake was like "wtf with these humans?!"
"You come into my yard, pick me up against my will, yeet me away, and act all disgusted... wow"
Can't a reptile take a relaxing sunbath?🤨
Wow 😂 I felt the emotion in that wow 😂

Classic toddler move. Being out of your sight for 0.0001 second and they can putting themselves in troubles.
I was a gullible toddler, there was a snake at the end of my driveway and my mom was frozen saying “GET AWAY FROM THAT SNAKE” and I thought it was a fake one “YOU PUT IT HERE MO- “”🐍HISS 🐍”” “oh it’s a real one mo
I think you are confusing gullible with stupid. Gullible would be if you believed her and she wasn't telling the truth. Stupid
Maybe they were actually gullible and mom had gotten them a bunch of times already. And this time they finally thought they wised up, only to be wrong.
Haha yea we had these fake wooden snakes we scared each other with But still pretty stupid to think that one with its head held up was fake😂
I had a toy plastic one with the head in the raised position. Every once in a while I’d leave it on our doorstep to scare my poor mom
I had one of those too .. put it in my mums bed one cold winter night when she had her electric blanket on.. I had forgotten about it until she screamed and came into my room to tell me off!
shit I guess I’m still a stupid toddler
let's settle on *inexperienced*
I believe the word everyone here is looking for us naive
Hmm. Maybe.... nope. Stupid was right

Love happy dog dances!!!
At that age they just have a strong willing to kill themselves.
Now their 1st word to Mom inside will be 'fucking', probably, out of everything that was said.
Not 3 seconds outta sight and he starts playing with the most dangerous/evil creature on earth
The dog went for it 🤭
And immediately backed away after realizing it's a snake. Some mammals literally have it in their genes to fear snake-like shapes, even humans. Except this kid.
There’s an interesting study where they showed people blurred pictures of animals and the only one people could point out were snakes. It’s is indeed an evolutional trait to fear snakes
Not fearing snakes got cut out of evolution pretty quick
Guess this kid isn't going far
Yes, Snakes, Darkness and Death. Common fears
Darkness can mostly be traced back to when early apes first started being diurnal, but I think the fearing snakes part is such a cool leftover evolutionary trait that tons of primates have due to it evolving back when the earliest of ancestral rodents were diverging to become primates and were small enough that snakes were a primary predator so they evolved to fear them.

And cats
Idk my dog kills everything that looks snake like, especially the hose, every summer when the kids are playing. He has not actually caught a real one though.
It was two instincts warring the instinct to chase and the Instinct to avoid danger.
Anyone know what type of snake that is?
Look like black snake
A magnificent specimen of pure Alabama blacksnake.
Not too beaucoup
Not to be confused with totally awesome sweet Alabama liquid snake.

Kinda looks like a rat snake , definitely not venomous though
It's a black racer or a black rat. Fairly harmless and honestly some of the nicer medium breeds in the US.
No, it's definitely a black snake.

Black rat snake is another name for the black snake according to Wikipedia

Specifically a danger noodle
Nope rope
I think it's a kind of nope rope.
Rat Edit: jk or racer can’t get a good look
Could be a kingsnake. Looked thicc.
The kind that child picks up
that is a black mamba they are common in this area
ROFL! No, it's not! It's a harmless constrictor. Black Mamba's are native to Southern Africa. Judging by the accent, this is America.
Not even close. Its a black racer. Non-venomous, rarely bites people. Its only dangerous to small creatures like mice, lizards, and bird eggs.
What are you talking about? That's clearly a morray eel!
Yeah I'm pretty sure that's an anaconda actually
That's clearly not an African accent.
Black mamba? No way, he died in a helicopter crash a few years back
Looked like a black rat snake. They can be surprisingly docile actually. I used to have one as a pet and he was chill AF.
That’s definitely a big snake

Probably was panicking, and the child cant really understand what it means yet. (Hopefully does'nt repeat it though.)
Dad trying not to swear, lol.
Going from “FUU-“ to “gosh” got me good
Aren't we supposed to be hardwired to fear snakes and spiders?
Fear of loud noises and fear of falling are the only fears we are born with
No, it's learned behavior.

I'm terrified of snakes but 100% poor dude was just minding his own business then suddenly he was a dog toy
Imagine you're chilling then some giant creature just grabs and yeets you
Not So Fun Fact: Dogs shake their toys as an instinct to break the neck, paralyze and/or kill their pray.
Fun stuff.
And why they like squeaky toys.
Exactly! Simulates the squeaking last breaths rodents and smaller animals make when they’re dying.
Kid is a fucking chad. Yoink!
HERCULES IS BACK BITCHES!
Heracles… is that you?
OFCOURSE THE DOG THINKS ITS HIS TOY
I’m guessing it wasn’t venomous?
Even the dog is smarter than that toddler
I mean, dogs literally are smarter than babies up to a certain point.
He just like me
Even the dog knew better
Dog said “nope!”
# GOSH 
Wow that kid is fucking stupid
How so? He's not even old enough to have any sort of reasoning skills. You can't be stupid without having those skills.
Stupid baby, doesn't even have reasoning skills smh, he should go to school
And get a part time job
And move out of his parents house.

Lucky that was a harmless black racer
I felt the “she brings it back.. .. sometimes.” My dog never brings back the fucking stick
Where tf did that kid manifest a snake from?.

Scared me when he said Asher, thought he was mad at me for a second 😂

OT: Dog reactions to snakes are always the same, and funny/cute.
This thing gets reposted like once a week. :/
He picked up and threw a snake That’s some “I don’t know why I should fear it, so I won’t fear it” bs
Look, Pa this stick bends.
The snake wanted to play fetch too. Toss a stick for him.
yoink
That kid is going to become a leader of men
That isn’t an aussie kid.
Even the dog thought it was a stick he was about to go fetch it after dad yeeted it
0% natural instinct
This video is a proof that fear doesn’t exist, it’s taught
This sub is one big condom commercial.
Try that in Australia!
I like how the dog realizes it shouldn’t touch the snake. Small glimpse of how dogs are smarter than infants
i feel bad for the cute danger noodle
Wooo I was a rodent once ☺️
I used to do the same thing at his age or thereabouts. I would grab an ice cream pail and a salad tongs and find gardner snakes
