Overreaction?  Nobody is saying "kill all the animals I don't like!"  But a few dead snakes (or mosquitoes) is not going to change our ecosystem.  Too many snakes (read Guam) may destroy an ecosystem. 

And who brought those particular snakes to Guam?

Did they just materialize out of thin air, some sunny morning?

 

There are in fact, eco-systems that can not even have small things change, before the break down!

It's you with a "few" snakes and Billy- Bob don't like 'em either, so there's some more killed and before you can say "Cobra Gold", a species is endangered, with rather catastrophic consequences.

It is never "just you" and a "few snakes"...

The snowflakes have given their bit, as usual, useless banter.

Let me guess: you are some butch soldier, a manly man, who has drunk the juice of more than just one snake, you sucked dry!

Why not use these expendibles?

Pay some money for the the privilege, to their estate for their beneficiaries. 

You must be expendable also, then, because sort recognises sort!

Probably gives the recipient amazing powers which allows him to perform incredible feats - like being able to shit through the eye of a needle at 20 metres...

I have a former Marine Gunny Sgt buddy. He said the five toughest and nastiest soldiers out there (other than the US marines) were the Royal Marines, the Gurkhas, The Thais Marines, Izzys and the Korean Marines.

You might have included "Who Dares Wins".image.jpeg.2eaeff7333b70cf1efb601ce07d94615.jpeg

Isn't it animal cruelty...just like killing and eating a dog ?

What a great idea, 1 soi dog for each soldier, that will help reduce the soi dog problem.

"US Marines and other international troops joined in the annual event’s tradition of drinking blood from decapitated cobras."

I you dared to call a Marine, whatever nationality, "dumb", they'd probably decapitate you and drink your blood too. 

Legends in their own minds.
