The rodent is like “well, not what I had in mind but all right.”
“Oh shit food? Attack! What he’s biting me? Better bite harder. AAHHH HE’S BITING HARDER”
I can’t believe after millions of years of evolution snakes still eat themselves.
Well, if the snake manages to reproduce, then eats itself, the genes for eating yourself after reproduction get passed on.
TLDR: you actions have a must smaller effect on evolution after you have reproduced successfully.
Thanks for the tldr, your first sentance was rather cumbersome.

I’m so confused why it’s marked as NSFW.
People feel sorry for mice and such videos are considered shocking content
But that’s not a mouse.
Edit: thats guinea pig, maybe 3 months, possibly younger. It’s not a mouse, it’s a bebby
Oh… well fuck that then. Unlabel it.
Wait so did it just fucking kill itself then
I read that snakes are not very sensitive to their venom. It will probably just be a painful nuisance for her.
The way it’s twisting I’d assume it’s a constrictor so probably not venomous. I’m no snakologist though.
It’s head tells me it’s not venomous. Venomous snakes look angry
oh hai, It’s me, the most venomous snake in the world

I would absolutely not assume this creature meant me any harm
The first one, I would be wary because of the colors. I’d rather run from a corn snake than be bitten by a copperhead. When I see color like that, I’m taking a step back regardless, before I even have time to look at it’s face/head
The second one… also gonna be wary of any swimming snake. Could be mostly harmless, or it could be a cotton mouth; but I’m not gonna check it out closely enough, before backing up. It still kinda has that “angry brow” too, if I did happen to get close enough
But I see your point either way. You can’t rely on just one factor for identification. The snake in OP’s video isn’t an “actual” threat to me, so it’s easier to observe.
I guess what I’m kinda saying, is that it helps to know a quick distinction between venomous/non-venomous. It might not be perfect for identification, but it helps the knee-jerk fear of thinking “the only good snake is a dead snake”. It at least helped me reduce my own fear, when I moved to a place where venomous snakes are much more probable.
It doesn’t keep me from reacting, but it definitely helps me from over-reacting
Edit: Looking at pics of the spine-bellied sea snake (Hardwicke’s sea snake), that thing definitely seems deceiving! It really doesn’t fit my usual assumptions. I still wouldn’t mess with any swimming snake, unless I absolutely knew what it was… but still, that is different from what I’ve seen
Nah, these noodles mainly use strangulation to kill their prey, they just strike it first to get it in close- it just needs to detach itself from itself and it will be okay
Snek: “this guy’s good! He is handling my best attacks”!
This is literally what twitch.tv did to their TOS the past few days
Poor cavy is too little to understand that it is in mortal peril. I bet it still thinks the snake is a friend.
Ahhahahahah That sweet, summer child.
