This may be 'nature', but it's sadistic that somebody takes pleasure or entertainment in this.

yup its one thing if it has to do it in the wild, its another when you choose to keep something that requires it for your entertainment.

That is kind of messed up but... for some reason that is amazing. I think the guy in the sunglasses and the flag/mask really ruined it though.

Whilst the 1st one seems kind of unaware of it, the 2nd rabbit had plenty of chance to get away from the snake, instead it just sat there..

Seems a little counter-intuitive to give his dinner away to his snake. Maybe he prefers the world of squirrels still yet?

Gotta love briars.

it is fairly interesting... said thing is those are domestic rabbits would have been much more interesting to see what a wild rabbit with survival instincts would have done.

Domestic rabbits have survival instincts also. I can't watch the video, but if the rabbit just sat there, it also happens in the wild. I just watched a show on dogs, and a dog ran down a rabbit in the desert. After the rabbit knew it couldn't outrace the dog, it just sat under a bush (just a few sticks), and waited to die.

That, or it could just be that some of the fear has been bred out of them. I've seen a white mouse get comfortable by burrowing underneath a ball python that wasn't hungry. They just have no clue.

A better way to feed captive snakes is with frozen feeders. They can be killed humanely with carbon dioxide, and there's no threat of injury to the snake due to a struggle.

One of my friends is in the exotic pet business. He has 8 snakes in his apartment (only one is venomoid... meaning not venomous). I was over once when he was feeding those beasts and at first I was thinking man that sucks for the mice (some were cute as hell).

After the third mouse it was just like watching the Discovery channel. Snakes gotta eat "fresh" prey.

Although you can argue whether thats humane.

a wild rabbit would have been clawing the walls and definatly would not have gone up and sniffed that snake.

alot of exotic owners are just trying to live vicariously.

Usually a pet is about companionship and helping....I really don't see where many these types of things give more than attention to someone.

Did anyone pick up on the fact he was wearing a Klan outfit and a Rebel flag bandanna? Looks like a gay Klansman and is making up for a small penis by having a big snake.

I'm surprised that the snake ate both rabbits. I would have thought one rabbit could feed a snake that size for quite some time.
