Last spring when I was out turkey hunting, it was still really cold out. Thought for sure there wouldn't be any snakes out, dummy me. Ran across a 5' black snake. I thought it was a stick and almost stepped on it because I wasn't looking for snakes. He poked his head up and thought he was going to bite me. 3" turkey loads will take a snake's head clean off. I hate snakes.

Also, I have killed several with an RSW 1000 fps pellet rifle. Just have to make a good head or body shot. Used to have them get in my goldfish ponds and eat the fish. Snakes can be killed with anything. They are pretty soft bodied.

Catch them alive, so on a hot day, they are fresh when you take them home. Real men will kill and clean the snakes for their wives. (They do in China anyway)

I'm a Dog lover, so if I don't know you and we are alone in the woods and my 2 Boxers and I get hungry...don't turn your back.

Just saying when you are in other cultures around the world it is no crime to experence there way of life. They will actually get offended by refusing there gestures. It is something I wouldn't bring home here to due. If you travel around the world you should be opened minded to different things. Plus sometime I found this a matter of survival when food was hard to come by. Plus eating native food you will smell like your enemy and not something different. You would be surprised that your daily intake of food can cause different body orders. And on a sneak and peek misssion you don't want to make yourself stand out from anything from your enviroment you are working into this can and is a matter of life and death.

Certainly not directed towards you sniper or anyone and I was just having some fun.
I hope I am never in a situation where I have to eat dog or my enemy.

I should have added this in my last post.
Thanks for serving!

No problem 147 no offense taken. I would never wish it on anyone to have to survive like a animal eating whatever happens to come by or what you can catch or find. I have been there and done that and let me tell you it ain't as glory as the movies make out it to be. It is a real nasty to eat something that in less than 2 minutes you puke right back up. Beanee Winneys in a rucksack can save your life and they sure taste good, beats the hell out of maggots and slugs.
