Military spouse Pam Zich tells of the trials and tribulations in finding someone to watch her son's pet Corn Snake when the family travels on vacation.
Despite all the efforts of networks like Animal Planet and Discovery, people still get squeamish about snakes, and only a minority of the population wants one as a pet.
I personally haven't killed a snake consciously since I was a teenager in Florida (I may have run over a couple since then with my car, but not intentionally). I captured a live Copperhead once on a visit to the Carolina Raptor Center, so even venomous snakes won't trigger a killer instinct in me unless no other alternative offers.
Some of us like snakes, some don't. That will probably never change.
