    Some kids got their mom a corn snake for her birthday, and I thought her reaction is just hilarious. This is a MUST SEE.


    Mod Edit: Please be warned that the corn snake is killed in the end of this video.

    Are you kidding me? Hilarious? This is disgusting. It's animal abuse.

    They purchased a snake - a living, breathing animal as a disposable gift for some laughs, and killed it. They had absolutely no intention of caring for the animal when they bought it. Just an FYI in case the entire video was not watched: the snake was killed by the woman at the end of the video with a pillow case....this makes me absolutely sick.

    Although this isn't entirely against the rules it brings up a good point about the responsibilities of posting. This video should not be on this site. Plain and simple. Let alone on the corn and rat snake forum specifically.

    If you are going to post a video you might want to watch through to the end, then think to yourself about the possibilities that younger viewers could possibly watch this and think that what is being done in the video is OK to do, or think about how people who OWN REPTILES would view this video? This post is extremely short sighted and could potentially be very upsetting to many other forum members. It's the same slippery slope of posting snake feeding photos anywhere else than the snake forum. Some members may own that type of animal that you are now showing videos or photos of it being killed. I am going to remove this video and from your post and leave the link with a WARNING about it's ending so that members can be prepared for the end and do not accidentally watch it (like I did).

    All in all, please be respectful of what you post and think about how others may view what you are posting BEFORE you post. Or post with a warning BEFORE you click on it.

    I didn't watch the whole video at first... The snake getting killed was exactly what I was afraid would happen when I said it "probably wasn't the best idea"

    You know what, this is why you should watch the end of the videos.

    I watched the beginning of the video and then saw in the description that the snake was not killed and what not so I decided to post it. I was NOT aware what happened at the end at all. I love snakes in every way so I would have never posted this video if I knew.

    I really don't even want to watch it now...and I know you didn't know I guess, but shouldn't you yourself watch it before showing it to other people? You can't always just trust descriptions, they're usually way off.

    That made my stomach turn, apparently not all people value life.

    This is the stuff that ruins the hobby, the irresponsible, uneducated pet owners. Killing a snake needlessly is sick. I'm disgusted.

    The kid is a disgusting heartless kid for doing that to his mom and looking at the snake as a toy.

    Nope...not going to watch it:( I don't think my tummy could stand it, i just ate b-fast and i liked it. It doesn't matter even if the snake was only possibly hurt, stunts without controled outcomes should NEVER happen! NOT COOL!!!!!

    I wish I could delete this video... These are the moments that make me feel like I am the only idiot in the world that trips over their own shadow...

    The snake is very clearly dead - they probably said that it was fine at the end of the video to cover their tracks, avoid negative comments, or maybe it was additional sick humor...who knows.

    I'm going to go ahead and lock this; no reason for it to be bumped up to the top anymore than necessary. The OP wishes for the link to be removed which is fair enough justification to lock this up. Don't be too hard on yourself Karlee; you obviously had fair intentions and were unaware of what the end held.
