#7: I would never take a photo with a slimy, disgusting creature like that. I feel really sorry for the snake. I love snakes!

You know, he seems his happiest and calmest when among animals…perhaps he should pursue a different career. Forget running for president, head an environmental or pro-animal agency, or better yet, head a zoo or preserve! :D
