What will the killjoys think of next?
I will now not be able to get my fix of snake - python to be precise at my next dinner out. A restaurateur in the UK was offering up Python in coconut sauce as a Halloween special. But alas we will never experience this delicacy. The animal rights activists state, that the snake continues to live for up to an hour after the head has been removed.
Let's be honest here - how productive can that time be? A snake doesn't do much during it's normal day to day routine, other then consume family pets. It has a fairly mundane existence. So if we where to hack it's head off - there is not apt to be much left outstanding on it's reptilian to-do list. It's not like the restaurant is offer a Noble Prize winner in a delicate cream sauce as an entree.
Well if I can't get my Python in coconut sauce - I think I'll have to try the Koala Skewers - they cook it table side.
Mmmmm - has a faint hint of eucalyptus.....

Which part lives for an hour? The head or the body? If it's the head, then its life can take its time before its eyes, rather than flashing by, so the snake can really absorb all he's done and properly atone.
nanny goat,
Excellent - good thinking - this is another reason why we should bring back beheading as capital punishment - give them something to think about....
Unless the snake is able to communicate telepathically with its severed body, then it can't feel any pain. As long as it doesn't wiggle off the plate, should be okay to eat.
