Anaconda attack

Karl,

I do think your right! Im sure he is out in the bush, honing his skills this very minute. You know trapping the neighborhood cats, Breeding rats, whittlin an ark for the coming Apocalypse with his trusty Knife, practicing lying still while something crawls on or in your orifices, The important things all us preppers should be doing.
I think Blade should be nominated for a Boots in the field award Can I get a second on that

That's just the thing, gryffynklm...you were giving Blade more credit than he deserves.
He had every chance to come back and say, ha, ha, it's a joke; no foul, no harm. But noooooooo...he stuck to his lame idea even though it was proven
that he lifted it off from somewhere where it was meant as a joke. He didn't even get that.
So...as far as I'm concerned, he has hurt himself in other areas where he might be right. Who cares?!

Iguanaiers nice post. Hang around a while.

Welderguy, glad you took the post the right way.

"Look at his other posts. Take those into account and consider his integrity."

Before Iguanairs posted i wanted him to defend his source and practice so i could post the "snopes" article that revels the hoax.

Sorry l like to play with my prey sometimes.

Welderguy, glad you took the post the right way.

Sorry, Karl. I should've known you better than that.
A little slow on the uptake here. Too darn cold.

Nevermind........

I sometimes like to help them dig deeper. Nothing gets them going like a little false support

I copied and pasted nothing! How dare you accuse me of plagiarizing!

When you steal other's photographs off the internet, you'll steal their words and thoughts just as easily without a thought that it is "stealing" as in, you are a thief.

Iguanaiers,

Great post! hope you stick around it sounds like your experiance with reptiles can be a great asset around here.

Blade, I want you to sit back for a second and think about it... you posted a picture of a tree house that was copied from the internet and said you built it. It was a joke but it flew over some heads. Then you made (I assume) a second joke and again it flew over some heads. As B said, not once did you come on and say lighten up folks, I found the pic on the net and was trying to make a joke. Then a few days later you post this about anacondas. B finds the exact same thing posted somewhere else pretty much word for word... do you see where I am going with this? Yes, it is very possible with a billion or so people posting in the internet that two posts could be the same but ether way it is wrong information. But you shouldn't get mad when people call you out on something... ether prove them wrong or admit that you were wrong. But if you walk away from it without explaining then your going to find a lot of people will assume your future posts are not original. Just my 2 cents

Don't forget that he told us in his intro that he was a thief. I applaud his honesty for that brief moment in time.

While it has been entertaining, I think the novelty of Blade has worn thin. Goodbye Blade.

Buh bye.

Please take the time to read this. I know it is long (sorry about that) but it will be enlightening. lol

My website (Herp Center) notified me of a linkback coming from this website. Since this site doesn't really fall into my niches category I was curious as to why it was linking to my site and I followed the link. I am happy I did because I want to use this opportunity to set the record straight on a few things since "Blade" is way out of bounds on what he has written.

The everglades do have an invasive species of snake that the media has sensationalized to an extreme. That snake is the Burmese Python, not the Anaconda. In fact, right now there is a contest going on until February to see who can dispatch (kill) the largest Burmese Python and who can dispatch the most Burmese Pythons. This contest doesn't include Anacondas. lol I guess Florida wants to keep these man eaters there to help with population control of people like Blade. SMH The media would have everyone believing that the Everglades is currently host to tens of thousands of the Burmese Pythons yet currently professional trackers and wildlife experts have only been able to come up with 21. 800 people are searching an area proposed to have tens of thousands of these snakes and they can't even find one each. lol The reason for this is very simple. In 2010 Florida experienced a severe freeze. This freeze killed off the vast majority of the pythons in the everglades. Reptiles are cold-blooded and can't create their own body heat. When temperatures drop below freezing they can't function and they die. This is the reasoning that all these experts and trackers aren't finding hundreds or thousands of these snakes, they simply aren't there right now in those numbers. I am not trying to downplay the severity of the invasive species. I just prefer accurate information be shared that isn't media hype and sensationalism.

I won't go so far as to say there are not Anacondas in the Everglades. That would be ignorant of me. I don't believe for a second that "Blade" would be encountering a specimen large enough to attempt to eat a man. For starters, it would have to be a Green Anaconda (the heaviest of all snakes) and close to reaching lengths of 20+ feet. Snakes much smaller than that are strong enough to kill a man but they wouldn't be physically capable of eating him.

Now I want to point on how snakes feed. Anacondas and Burmese Pythons are constrictors. They literally kill their prey by constricting them and exasperating the air from their lungs. (This causes suffocation and death.) They do this BEFORE they eat their prey. An anaconda is NOT going to "size up a man" and ponder if he is going to eat him. If his intent were to attempt to consume the person he would strike out and constrict. That is their natural reaction and how they are programmed. They aren't smart enough to look at a man lying down and say "well his feet are together and he isn't moving so I will just start eating him". The fact that "Blade" even proposes such nonsense is indicative of how uneducated he is on the species (and snakes as a whole), yet alone its presence in the Everglades. My 8 year old could have offered you more reliable information on the species. Once the animal is dead the snake will seek out the easiest method of consumption (in most cases) which will be the head. The reason this is the natural way for a snake to feed is back to how the snake is programmed. It will look for the path of least resistance. The body of animals, including humans, is streamlined from the head down. Your arms and legs will press down with ease but will cause resistance if pressed upward. Think about it like this; you are laying on the ground dead and the snake grabs a leg and starts eating. Once he gets to your groin, he is screwed. Our legs are not designed to flex upward and neither are many other species. As a result of evolution and eons of this happening they have learned that starting at the head is the easiest approach to feeding. They DO NOT eat from the feet first. LMAO (Some snakes will start from the ***-end but it is not typical and they do not do it intentionally as proposed by "Blade".)

I currently own 12 Ball Pythons, 2 Corn Snakes and a Boa Constrictor. I have been keeping and researching reptiles for 20+ years. I have been breeding varying species for 12+ years. I don't pretend to know everything about reptiles and am constantly learning but I can say with 100% assurance that no one on this site should listen to a thing coming from this kid "Blade". If he didn't take that inaccurate info from my site (which was posted to mock the idiot passing it around) then he has simply just told everyone himself that he completely lacks intellect and common sense. Give a man a shovel and some time and many will bury themselves. Well played "Blade", well played. SMH

Thanks for the up date.....I'm thinking it didn't take long to see BS all over the OP.....LOL
