The dog has been made more efficient with its new form factor. Now every movement is a tail wag.

Pythons are pretty chill snakes overall tbh. If you're careful, handle them frequently, and make sure they're comfortable in their environment they won't do anything. It all comes down to owner handling.

They also aren't that stupid and won't (usually) try to attack anything that's too big for them to eat, except out of fear. Because thats a waste of energy. And she is very much too big for him to get his mouth around to digest. So no, she isn't going to die.

No it's not, snakes aren't very bright but unless it's starving (which that snake clearly isn't) a captive born/bred snake isn't likely going to eat anything it's not used to. Dogs are way more likely to attack than a pet snake.

"You are very warm. I'll eat you last"

You could say that about any pet snake really, but as long as you're a good snake owner it's not a big risk. They eat once every week or two on a schedule and the general rule of thumb is don't cuddle with them when it's feeding day. Feed them in a special container that's only association and purpose is feeding.

After a bit of that they catch on and you can dangle your hand in their face all you want. They'll understand you are the food source and not a threat. Then you get to chill with them, since they are cold blooded they like cuddlinga with your warmth quite a bit. It's another rule of safety just don't let them get a coil around something like a leg or what have you.

Snakes are cool pets just pretty high maintenance. I could see this snake being even more lazy since it's so big, but moving it has to be a two man job.

Doubt it. Most pythons are surprisingly picky eaters.

Take one of mine. ‘Only mice, only live, and no white ones!’ is the usual dinner order. And sometimes they’ll snub that mouse if it doesn’t meet their standards. I feel cats should take notes.

Burmese are pretty chill. This isn’t ’looking for food’, this is ‘I found a hot water bottle’.

People who have no experience with snakes always seem to have the silliest ideas about what they’re like.

She's far too large, that snake appreciates her as a heat source right now.

Certainly looks like it’s ready to bite. It’s unbelievable to me that some people think that snakes can be pets like a dog or a cat. Even birds are infinitely more capable of recognizing a person as someone in their lives that is something more than just predator/prey than snakes.

Do pythons smell? I did not know this
