More on snakes



If I seem a little fixated on the topic, it is because our little serpentine friends are one of the few causes for excitement most days. I personally bagged four today.

As I have mentioned before, snakes are revered as sacred animals in Mongolia. "Sacred Animal" status, however, only means you can't kill them. Stuffing one in water bottle and using it to scare your buddies is fine; as is duct-taping them to the floor.

Have you tried cooking and eating one yet?

Tasteless right? (The comment not the snake!) What would be the penalty for eating a sacred animal?

Just like chicken...
