Hi Bill
Probably an urban myth--sort of like the cat and babies, I would imagine.
May have happened that the snake was looking, but then the conclusion was
that the snake was looking for dinner. However, I am not going to be the one
to test this at all. Like Kaye, I have a healthy respect for snakes--I
respect their privacy and I feel healthy about doing so. But, I do know
there are people who enjoy them as pets, but as Kathy says--if you are going
to have pets, you use common sense in the pet you choose.
Urban myths are fun though as they really are "morality stories" in disguise.
