BOUNTYDOG: It must have swallowed some food and waiting to digest it. It should have been more aggressive if it were hungry. I hate reptiles especially snakes.  |

Highly poisonous snake, if you eat it, the venom will take over your blood. Don't dare eat it. |

That means you only succeeded in killing the black snake while letting go the green snake. See opportunity cost in killing snake. [color=#000099][/color] |

BOUNTYDOG: ^^^ I guess you did what you had to do when you found out that the snake could pose a threat to your pets... Its hard to tell the species from the pictures since you burn't? the snake. From the pictures though, it seems the snake had fangs (from the little I can see) and that points to a venomous snake. If it had yellow patches on its ventral scales then it was most likely a West African forest cobra - they are very widely distributed among most of Nigeria's climatic zones. For future encounters: if you are left with no option but to kill a venomous snake and you eventually do so, please ensure its head is cut off and buried. Snakes are cold blooded creatures with slow metabolism and the bite reflex is still very much active even after we humans believe the snake is 'dead'. There have been multiple cases of snakes that were crushed and left for dead (except for the head) - only for them to bite unsuspecting people who handled them carelessly in the mistaken belief that they were dead. Don't be a victim please. Avoid handling them (dead or alive) unless you really have to. As another poster pointed out - please consider the possibility that a snake you confront - with the intention of killing it - may just happen to be a spitting cobra. They may not be as widely distributed in our environment as forest cobras but they are still there! In the tension and drama of an encounter, it is easy to forget this and to assume that as long as we stay out of striking distance, we are safe.  Well...even if you are out of range of being bitten, a spitting cobra could easily shoot venom into both your eyes (with 100% accuracy!) from up to 10 feet away! The result? Temporary or permanent blindness. And if the droplets somehow get into your lungs? Death is a real possibility. Stay safe. |
