webfact Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Unlikely friendship? Photos of ‘puppy bringing home serpent friend’ go viral (PHOTOS) By Coconuts Bangkok Photo: Dog Cry/ Facebook LAMPANG: -- Shocking photos showing a puppy in Thailand’s upcountry bringing home a rat snake to his owner’s farm are going viral this week, but netizens have serious doubts about this “unlikely friendship.” The photos were reportedly taken by the dog’s owner, a farmer in northern Lampang province, and were later reposted by Thai Facebook page “Dog Cry”, which shares photos and videos of cute dogs. “Dog brings a new friend home! By the way, rat snakes are nonvenomous,” the caption on Dog Cry readers.

I had a few experiences with Cobra working in Malaysia . The railway we were building had many palm oil plantations beside. I was walking down the track one morning and surprised a cobra that was basking on the white ballast it reared up and made a very stange loud noise , more like cat screech than a hiss. I will admit I almost shat myself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

worgeordie Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Something not right with that photo,Rat snakes are usually hyper,they see you and are off. The other day the wifes screaming something at the front door,get there and she's shouting Snake !, Snake !, I am thinking its one of those 2-3 footers we usually see,which the cat likes to kill and eat,when I look it has to be 8 foot one of the biggest ones I have seen,the cats sitting watching it,must be thinking you're too big for me,so went out gave it a poke with a brush and it was off like a rocket,very fast,the cats following it at a distance. regards worgeordie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chill Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 (edited) Sorry, it looks more like a copperhead racer to me, but they are aggressive. Apologies, I see a copperhead racer is a rat snake.

Soi Dog Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 This reminds me of the story about when a blind snake and a blind rabbit met in the woods. They both said they didn't really know what kind of animal they were so they agreed to feel each other and try to figure it out. First the snake crawled all over the rabbit and then he said "you are warm and furry and you have big ears and a cotton tail so you must be a rabbit." Then the bunny felt the snake and said "You ar cold and slimy and slither on the ground and I could not detect any heart beat. You must be a lawyer."

grin Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 What's the difference between a dead lawyer in the road and a dead snake in the road? There are skid marks in front of the snake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
