When handling snakes, look at it carefully. You must know the breed, temperament and such. Anyway, so it really just depends on the snake. Some may be gentle and couldn't harm a fly but others may even need a snake hook or a clampstick. Here are some tips that I copied from this website: http://www.petplace.com/reptiles/how-to-handle-a-snake/page1.aspx: Check it out for some other information I might not have covered! * Be sure the snake is aware that you are present. Don't surprise it.
* Handle the snake when it is awake, but during the time of day that it is most lethargic.
* Always move slowly, and, if possible, approach from the side rather than from above.
* If the snake recoils into a striking "S," stop temporarily or use a hook or clampstick.
* Use gloves when handling non-venomous snakes that are persistently "snappy."
* If it is necessary to handle a snake that has eaten recently or is preparing to shed its skin, do so very gently, supporting the snake as fully as possible.
* Never pin a snake or lift it by its neck. The cervical vertebrae are delicate and, if damaged, the snake is apt to be permanently disabled.
* When lifting a large or heavy bodied snake, slide your hand or a hook under its body about a third of the way back, begin lifting it, then support it appropriately just posterior to mid-body. Slender snakes are not quite as badly in need of posterior support, but it sure can't hurt.
To catch a snake, use a long stick or pole to gently pin its head down while maintaining a safe distance from its striking range. Once the snake's head is secured, carefully grasp it behind the jaw and support its body to avoid getting bitten. It's important to handle snakes with caution and preferably with the help of a professional if you're unsure.
If it is coiled around you, try to relax... Try not to breathe heavy.. Poor alcohol on its eyes or hot water. If that fails, start cutting off its head, or any part of its body that's available.
Always make sure when handling large snakes, even if its friendly make sure someone is around to help you if something happens...
Theres been plenty of deaths because people thought their snakes were harmless..
Yes, a forest snake may hunt and catch a rabbit for food. Snakes are opportunistic predators and will feed on a variety of small animals, including rabbits, if given the chance.
Like most snakes the coral snake is an ambush predator. Since reptiles generally do not have the stamina to pursue prey, they must catch it by surprise. The coral snake is highly venomous, and this is employed in hunting. The snake will sneak up on its prey and deliver a quick bite. The venom soon kills they prey animal, allowing the snake to eat it without a struggle.
