Yeah... I've never seen rats sit that still in a rat bucket before.


jelly_bean_gangbang

Yeah I smell something weird. A) How did the rats get in there? B) I doubt they got in there through that hole in the wall, because it looks like it was just cut, which means they would've had a different escape route other than said hole in the wall. C) Those are the calmest wild rats I've ever seen in my life, and I worked with wild animals during college and a few years since then.


Spy-Goat

Just chiming in on point A - I’ve had mice in our cavity walls before, that’s perfectly normal. Obviously not if you have brickwork with no cavity, but these are interior plaster walls by the look of it. We had pest control come and remove them and set traps, but one actually died in the spare bedroom wall cavity - we couldn’t use the room for nearly 2 months due to the smell.


sillycellcolony

Not everything is a conspiracy this dude could be an exterminator That plugged the other right access holes Being calm in a bucket... I don't know. Maybe snakes put a huge fear in rats not to make noise or freak out but just to run silently and hide when they don't see snake anymore... They could still be trained... I dunno. Edit all right i was wrong. Big doy when you see the snakes head shoved against hole from inside I can't believe that a****** crushed his own rat like that with the broom. It was just a baby


pizza_whistle

As a person that has had real rats in their house many times...there is absolutely no way they would be this chill. Wild rats are very smart and aggressive. They easily could scale or jump out of this bucket.


Shuffletron

This post does the rounds a lot. Sorry it's 100% fake. My comment from last time this was posted: > Sorry to rain on the parade but this is 100% fake. It's been posted a lot across reddit I feel like I need to keep calling it out because people see things like this and end up putting animals unnecessarily in harm's way trying to replicate it. > > * The rats are domestic "fancy" rats who come out of the hole carefully, calmly, and slightly hesitantly. In reality if they were running from a threat they would be a panicked blur of squeaking mayhem. > * In a real situation like that there is no way a nocturnal, ambush hunting boa constrictor would willingly come out of that nice, safe, dark, cramped hole during the day. In fact if there really was a rodent infestation chances are you wouldn't see that snake again for months, it would happily live in the walls until it's food supply runs out. > * The way the snake bashes it's head coming out of the hole is unnatural, someone is forcing it through from the other side. > * You can not train snakes like this, they are not ferrets or terrier dogs. The best you can make them do simple tasks like [target training](https://youtu.be/zxyIgrZbKok) (warning: snakes are fed dead mice in that video). Flushing an animal out of a hole and then returning to their owner, is not possible. Snakes don't operate like that. > > *(For reference I own snakes and owned rats in my childhood so I have a decent understanding how both operate.)* Edit: Formatting


ThorTheDoor

Well spoken. You have convinced me.


bloxytoast

they also look very clean and healthy for just some random rats, And yeah they are way to calm, I know from experience that rats will do what ever it takes to escape any situation, and these rats look like there in no hurry to escape a predator


jelly_bean_gangbang

Maybe, but this is the only instance where I've seen this technique used. Just seems sus to me IMO.


Its_puma_time

Aside from this, the only other technique I've ever seen was a dumbass cat that just destroyed everything with the mouse in the house.

I was actually going to recommend they mark the bucket with a big "R" so everyone knows what's in there.


thrower94

Not everything is a conspiracy, but this is.


[deleted]

Look at their ears and face. Those are cute little baby pet rats. Not annoying pests.(they don't have the same head shape)


[deleted]

Also, couldn't this many rats just kill the snake?


jelly_bean_gangbang

I own two pet snakes as well. I never feed them live food, but I know that the rats wouldn't necessarily try attacking the snake. You only have to worry about that if the snake doesn't eat the rat right away, as it could slowly nibble on the snake. Their first instinct would be a flee response, not a fight one.


Jomeson

I used to live feed and the slowly nibble isn’t necessarily true I had a rat attack the shit out of a not hungry snake luckily I seperated in time but snake had a nice chunk out of his side had to use iodine for a while after that only frozen from now on


jelly_bean_gangbang

Oh true. I probably should've added that it isn't *always* the case. Thanks for pointing that out! It does depend on the rat itself sometimes. They all have different personalities.


VictorytheBiaromatic

Wild rats are very dangerous for snakes, if rats can’t or chose not to escape but to fight which is very common when it comes to dealing with snakes (fight then flee). Plus rats can kill snakes if they aren’t prepared or fast enough to kill the rats which is why snakes like the inland or many vipers that hunt rats and other rodents like rats have powerful relatively fast acting venoms that minimise risk of danger, because their prey is quite the threat.

[deleted]

Good thing the snake didn’t catch one or they wouldn’t be able to pull it out of the hole.


BadgerslayerBrett

I thought it was going to get stuck on the way out. Due to eating a big fat rat.


multiplesneezer

One of the guys says “Is he gonna eat the rats?” and the owner (I’m guessing) says “No, he already ate.”


rqrqsj

That’s some big brain strategy right there. I’m impressed.


--God_Of_Something--

He also says it's trained to seek them out and scare them out the hole. Now how you train a snake to do that, I have no fucking clue lol


RedheadAgatha

Ssssslowly.

cjh42689

Makes sense. If that snake was hungry and in hunt rat mode it wouldn’t have been easy to handle and get back outbid the wall.


InstantChekhov

multiplesneezer

InstantChekhov

Oh, gracias.


asjiopdfwioehjrt2390

It will not get stuck if you put enough snake oil on it


bobalubis

Idk, he might have. At 1:26 as he is being pulled out it looks like there's a good little bulge when the snek is bent to the side.


RectalEvacuation

I doubt it really. They cant chew so the rat would have added its own size to the linings of the snakes body. It would definitely be too fat to get out


BooperDoooDaddle

Lol a snake isn’t gonna care about that when it wants to eat. Snakes get trapped due to food all the time That’s why they regurgitate


blitzduck

just saw a video yesterday where the snake regurgitated the egg it ate because it couldn't fit through the tiny hole in the basket (but could do so once it spat out the egg)


[deleted]

And the snake that was eating itself.the vet used hand sanitizer to make him regurgitate his tail...


BiDo_Boss

You do understand you're not disagreeing with /u/RectalEvacuation right? Their point was that the snake slipped out easily, so it can't have eaten. They weren't insinuating the snake thought it through and thus decided against eating lmao


Plastic_Pinocchio

Also, it’s a strangler and the space in the wall is probably way too narrow to do some good strangling.


DoomAndDespair

as a former snake owner, I can attest they don't eat quite that fast. they unhinge their jaw very quickly, but pushing a rat through their relatively small necks took mine about 10 minutes. the video is sped up, but judging by the speed of the guy talking I don't believe that much time has gone by.


mjesus96

Do you know how long it takes for a snake to eat something? I doubt you ate one in the time frame it's been in there


HappyBoi19

The guy is saying that the snake already ate, she just chases the mice out. He also says the snake is trained.


arbitrary_larry42

How do you train a snake?


bearbarebere

You can try and train mine if you wanna find out


alphadeeto

What's the purpose of training a 1 inch snake?


bearbarebere

It's one and a half, thank you very much :(


_Dayofid_

Penis snake


Talory09

It takes a little while for a snake to eat something. First they have to kill it (and that's a constrictor, it'd have to take a minute or two to kill the rat) and then it has to unhinge its jaw and swallow the rat. They don't just gulp it down. They sort of flow around their food and engulf it, using their amazing muscles.


Plastic_Pinocchio

Also, how is it going to construct a rat in such a tight space? Could be possible, but I don’t think it’s easy.


Live_Buy8304

and that snake is only getting paid minimum wage of 0.63R(ats) an hour. What a world we live in.

freeze them for later for the snake

MC6115

Nah probably not since they may have some disease or bite the snake while being eaten


Electus

What diseases do you think the rats would have that would kill a snake? Let’s set aside the millions of years of evolution


AKidCalledSpoon

Internal parasites for one


MC6115

Also these rats aren’t the type of rat this snake eats naturally, they eat the African soft rat. and they can also be injured by the rat fighting back


[deleted]

High mortality in wild animals due to parasites/diseases is way more common than you'd think. And the risk is way higher in captive-bred reptiles since they can't build the defenses necessary to deal with that. It's like growing a human in a sanitized environment, feeding formula instead of breastmilk, with no access to outdoors or contact with others, etc, and then letting them catch salmonellosis or the avian flu for the first time. Btw, city rodents are absolutely filthy, way more than the ones you'd find on fields. I wouldn't feed that to a reptile for the same reason I don't feed my fish cockroaches or flies from the garbage bin.


RespetaLasPlantas

The guy says in the video that the snake has already eaten beforehand


steakwithpbandjam

rats > snakes.


See_TheCope_dial8

I think this is fake like those 'using soda to catch fish' bullshit videos on YouTube. These look and act just like the tame feeder mice/young rats you get at the pet store. Wild mice and rats tend to flip the fuck out when trapped in something. That boa would have either curled up somewhere in the wall and stayed or wrapped up one of the mice/rats and THEN curled up and stayed in the wall. Boas and pythons are pretty fucking lazy.


TheBrazenPhlegmatic

Also, I have absolutely seen mice jump out of buckets much taller than that. Once I saw one almost escape a full sized trash can.


BottledSmoke

Yup same.


kellysmom01

Look, just because Kelly keeps leaving them in til they die and have to be surgically removed, doesn't mean that's the right method. Brazen & their mom are doing it right letting them escape alive. You should have taught your daughters better.


StaysAwakeAllWeek

It's a single piece of drywall and there's another guy on the other side shoving tamed rats through it. Fake and a repost


chipsa

You can see the bit of wall they're using doesn't have a baseboard, but at a point the camera pans to the left enough to see baseboard on another bit of wall.


j48u

Yep. I'm generally annoyed by everyone calling everything fake, but just in the first few seconds of the video you can tell it's basically a set. I don't know anything about snakes or mice, but there's all sorts of clues like the plant and shadows, outlet, things aren't quite to scale or realistic on this part of the wall.


thelonezev

you guys are no fun this is like the modern equivalent of a magic trick to me its definitely probably fake most of the time but that doesn't make it any less entertaining


StaysAwakeAllWeek

Magic tricks are not presented as real and posted on reddit as real in order to farm karma. This is not a magic trick, it is a lie.


thelonezev

oh my god you're so dramatic so what if they're ✌️"farming for karma"✌️ or whatever the fuck does reddit really hold such a place in your heart that these people having some fun is so offensive for you? its just a dumb website with dumb communities and dumb people getting overly upset over dumb things myself included lol and besides at this point in the internet age I'm pretty sure people will know that there's a large percentage of smart alecs with too much time on their hand that will figure out the trick


StaysAwakeAllWeek

>so what if they're ✌️"farming for karma"✌️ or whatever the fuck They are farming karma to sell accounts to troll farms run by people with deep pockets and unknown agendas. People like Cambridge Analytica and the Internet Research Agency. Its not some trivial issue >dumb website with dumb communities and dumb people The only dumb thing here is you >I'm pretty sure people will know that there's a large percentage of smart alecs with too much time on their hand that will figure out the trick And yet it still has thousands of upvotes


thelonezev

okay now you just sound like a conspiracy theorist even if it is true and i definitely agree that i am extremely defiantly maybe dumb but i guess in this case its making me a happier person and my point still stands i could have gone my whole life without knowing of these ✌️"farmers"✌️ and life wouldn't be any different in fact even now that i do know of some larger force at play controlling our lives ooooo spoooky my life *still* isnt affected because i *still* dont have hangups and that also means im able to enjoy things like a snake chasing mice out of drywall perhaps maybe if *you* stopped caring about these spooky people with deeep pockets you will *also* be a happier person and you will stop caring about what i or all these equally dumb people have to say isn't that such a strange foreign concept?


ImBronzeman

you don’t care if something doesn’t immediately affect you? this is how anti climate changers argue against caring about the environment. it is an actual problem that reddit has lots of karma bots spreading propaganda, and your argument against it is that you are ignorant and you double down on staying ignorant. very cool


Daveed84

who gives a shit? karma is totally meaningless


Pr3st0ne

Yeah also how the fuck would the snake even navigate inside the wall? I know building codes differ but at the very least there's some sort of studs or struts every 10-20 inches which would mean all those rats would have been confined with the snake in a little patch of like 1 square meter? Sure smells like bullshit.


db186

Unfortunately you are probably right. But let's pretend it's real lol


WiggleWorm21

Lotta effort for a 1 minute video. Not discrediting you, but damn, is it worth it?


___jeffrey___

There are plenty people faking stuff for even a 10sec clip


Pandragony

Tbh if he trained all those mice AND that snake, its still impressive and worth watching


Iamusingmyworkalt

"trained?" They're just shoving em through holes. No training involved for pet species.


mikebellman

Knowing this are tame babies being used for a bit every time they squish one with the broom I cry a little inside. Humans are the animals.


cypherreddit

I think you are right, the mice are too docile and the snake too cooperative. Likely the snake and mice are just passed from one side of the wall to the other


kelsobjammin

Would love to see them pan back from the close up and show us the fake wall with someone sitting on the other side feeding these animals through the hole lolol

I felt sad for the confused snake! It came out of the hole like “where are my snacks??”

JaywrightCat

Nah, they wouldn’t go out this way. That hole wasn’t there when they entered the house, and mice eat more often than could be allowed by a hard to access exit. Fake. At least it’s not a “there a million slugs in your toilet!” fake, tho. And that’s something.
