Reticulated Python handling in defense mode (zulu)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 22 авг 2024
- This is Zulu a male white phase albino tiger reticulated python.
I turned him loose in the house to clean his cage. Zulu is displaying a defensive behavior which has likely been triggered due to being backed into a corner and me towering above.
Sorry for the shaky video, I'm filming and trying to handle him at the same time. Zulu last weighed 54 lbs and approx 12.5ft

Python: *gets slapped by hook*
>:0
It really calms them down and lets them know that you are not a threat or food. My friend would do that often with his Burmese
@@angertubby2787 not gonna lie that’s adorable
@@divinephanes its even cuter when you pet them with it, just a reminder, never with a hand
“He can do quite a bit of damage”
Meanwhile he grabs and slaps and pets the snake
He’s supposed to do that to establish dominance 😭
@@Marisnailwtf please never get close to a snake
@@Marisnail dominance is a social concept. Snakes aren't social animals so they don't even know what that means.
My friend used to have a Burmese python as a pet, he would often tap his head gently with his hook to calm him down not establish dominance. If you tap their head gently with a hook NEVER WITH YOUR HAND. They will understand you are not food or a threat
@@Syliag7 I’m at least 90% he’s joking
Amazing how quickly his demeanor changed once he realized it was you and you weren't a threat.
thanks for watching
+drthik1 Wow, cool snake!
+Epixx thanks for watching!
This hasn't much to do with how smart the animal is. Lizards and snakes have relatively small cognitive skills and they are for the most part driven by insticts for example they often react to smell. If the owner is giving their reptile a positive reaction, than they will usualy react positvely to them because of the association of the owner with feeding, comfort, safety etc. But, there are situations that will nontheless trigger those creatures to attack or react agressively. Even the friendliest crocodile for example, can not help it and it will close it's mout if something is touching the tongue. Or if you happen to give the snake food and your finger or hand smells like the food, it will bite and attack as well. It's like a reflex. And this situation here, was a very great display of instinctive behaviour. This is how those animals survived for millions of years in the wild after all, and which made the in many cases the apex predator in their environment, like well Pythons or Crocodiles. And you should never ever forget this, even if you love your animals, but the can and will attack if they're triggered you have to understand their body language.
TL:DR
*Starts poking his head with the hook like 20 times
”This should calm him down"
And it actually will touching there head let's them know that you are not food or dangerous to them
They do that to see how it would react. You can't just go round touching it with your hand straight away.
It's true. Although i don't use a hook for my boas, i always go behind the head and stroke them so they know it's me, they then know i'm not a threat nor food.
MackofejFTW same way you grab a dogs neck to show dominance when it’s attacking
Is it okay if I find this snake fairly adorable in a way... I mean it's absolutely terrifying at the same time haha.

I jumped a bit at 0:50 to be honest.
yeah me to xD
Just behind the head is actually the best place to grab a snake. If you hold them too far down, they can coil around and grab you easily. The closer to the head your hand is, the harder it is for them to do that.
Stannis The Mannis Damn you, I skipped trough the vid and jumped when I went to 0:50 afterwards..... hahahaha

*grabs his head and pushes him around*
He probably just wanted to stroke him from a safe distance to let the snake know he wasn’t trying to hurt him. Snakes don’t really have emotions like we do, but they can recognize their owners and become used to them. As the man said, his snake isn’t used to being on the floor outside his enclosure, so he was naturally afraid of anything that was big an approached him outside his safe space. The guy just needed to let his snake know he wasn’t a threat, so he rubbed him, and then pet him so the snake could recognize, “this is the human that brings me food.”
@@HelloCompanionhow do you know if snakes have emotions or not?

So Canadian quote
This is the kinda shit that makes me wonder how humans even survived
I agree. lol
CerealKillerOats because we humans learned that no animal exists for the pure purpose of hunting us, and that if we don't give an animal reasons to feel threatened it won't attack us. as long as a snake is regularly fed and does not feel stressed it has no reason to attack, just like any other animal :)
Humans haven't accepted that they're useless lol
Tools. Our ancestors were smart enough to invent tools to compensate for things we lacked. You ever wonder why lions are significantly faster and stronger than us yet it's us who use them as circus animals and not vice versa? We are not fast enough to catch rabbits, so we made traps. We are not stealthy enough to sneak up on a deer, so we shoot an arrow at it from afar. We don't have claws to fight off predators who attack us, so we make spears to impale them with. We don't wait for evolution to come along and give us a natural defense - we're too impatient and smart for that. When we lack something, we find a way to circumvent that weakness with inventions and keep it moving. This is why mankind rules the world.
CerealKillerOats I don't think early Humans used snakes as pets more of dog/wolf thing. i wouldn't trust a snake in my house but that's just me.
"now I can touch him"

That is one gorgeous boy! It's so strange, that with their evolved sense of smell, they don't always seem to know the ones to trust are the ones who care for them every day. But, as you said, if he doesn't get out that much he may be a little stressed, so doesn't know how to react. He just relies on his old instincts when he's cornered.
Probably because their eyes see heat and people can just put deodorant or perfumes on themselves that change their scent
@@joshuaded1052their eyes see normally, some snakes like retic have heat pits to sense heat. Its another sense, its not heatvision.
@@CampinSteve ah ok,
@@CampinStevein pit vipers at least their thermal pits are linked to the same part of the brain as their vision. So for all intents and purposes, they do have short range IR vision (it’s not too far range though since heat sensitive pits can only detect so much).
So they basically have heat vision and regular vision. Also snakes can smell in stereo so they effectively have smellavision too since the two parts of their tongues when transmitting signals to the scent receptors are differentiated letting them sense the direction of scent and compare how concentrated it is in each part of the tongue.

Snakes like the feel on the head that tells them that the thing (or person) touching his head is not dangerous or food. That’s why it calmed down afterwards

@@RoyaleWitCheese04 you.
poor snek got spooked and got defensive! I find it so interesting how snakes learn to connotate certain things with certain things, like a snake hook with his owner/food or a target with food. These are intelligent creatures!
i felt so uncomfortable during this entire video.

Ahmad Mateen I have three snakes in my room hahaha (not big enough to eat me yet but if they learned to work together maybe)
@@BirdaeBlue Snakes would be so much more terrifying if they were social hunters like that.
Honestly I felt a bit uncomfortable too, but I love snakes, one of the main reasons is because this guy said that his snake wasn't used to being out much.... One of the most dangerous mistakes you can make is not letting your reptile out of their container enough.... Because.... Well... Yeah this happens. Also if they have a strong bond with you, they are less likely to eat you if they got the chance.

do you have some Videos About your other snakes ? how big are they ! :D
wow
searched for a python tutorial...
not disappointed
I never saw the “touch with the hook to calm them down” tactic before but I learned it on my own with my own SMALL snakes, most of the time I’m able to do it with my hand but NOT when they are in striking position, once my hand enters their enclosure they’re going to be afraid but as soon as I gently touch their side and show them I’m not a threat they calm down and let me touch and hold them. A tag from one of my snakes really isn’t that bad, though of course if they constricted me that would cause some more damage. That’s a beautiful snake you have I hope he’s still doing well.
Yeah, reptiles are much touchier while in their enclosures, in my experience. They probably see anything entering their “den” as threatening, since in nature… it pretty much always would be. Once you have them out, they seem to register what’s going on and go back into “chill mode”.
