Pet Python strangles 2 year old

You don't put a young child in the same room as a wild animal? Who knew?

Loss of life is definitely sad. I agree that some animals are very dangerous and need to be watched. I will say though, that humans are at the top of the list on the dangerous creatures list. Just thinking.

So, if you have your mom and a grizzly bear in the same room with you. which one would you fear?

Trick question. Everyone knows they stay away from wild violent animals. The grizzly is smart enough to know that.

I understand the grizzly will probably be OK as long as you're not hassling her cub.

By 'hassling' you mean 'being within a half mile of it', right? Grizzlies are not cute little cuddlies like crocodiles, they eat people for a living.

But what if the griz is messing with a human mom's baby?

Human mom would still lose unless she had a big enough gun.

Can't legislate common sense. I fee the same way about Pit Bull dogs.

You don't put ANY person in the same room with a wild animal. Look at the lady who was in the news about 6 months ago that owned the gorilla whose best friend literally got her face and hands ripped off because the animal went nuts on her. Pit bulls are the same way. They can do just as much damage to an adult as they can a child.

I never understood why anyone would sleep in the same room as an animal that could potentially be dangerous if it escaped its cage. And that goes for pit bulls as well.
