Snakes can be scary as well as deadly. Despite knowing the risks, many individuals continue to engage in perilous activities involving these reptiles. One such video, of a toddler dragging a snake, has sparked outrage and concern among viewers on social media.
The video, shared by an Instagram user named First_love_addiction, shows the child handling the snake while attempting to bring it indoors. The elders present in the house appear visibly uncomfortable and scared, hastily retreating to a corner and signaling the child to keep the reptile away from them.
The video has garnered significant attention, accumulating over 17.7 million views and six hundred thousand likes. Users expressing their discontent have criticized the parents for their lack of responsibility, highlighting the potential dangers associated with interacting with snakes.
Even if the snake in the video is harmless, many argued that it is irresponsible to treat animals in such a manner, emphasizing the importance of proper understanding and respect for wildlife.
Some commenters questioned the person filming the video, suggesting that they should have intervened to protect the child from potential harm.
Others drew humorous comparisons, likening the scene to the story of “Jungle Book” or personal experiences with introducing significant others to their families.
