i have been wandering for a while about the snakes at places like australia zoo and dreamworld,reptile shows etc.how can they tell 100% without a doubt there snakes will not bite while being handled.i asked a handler at aussie zoo and he says because there bred for temperment!all my snakes are extremely placid but i would never trust them with a kid,just incase something did happen,i have seen how some kids are with cats and dogs and i wouldnt want them to squeeze my snake like they do the dogs and cats tails,most likely a bite is going to happen then
