Snake learns a harsh lesson about who’s really the top predator.

I don’t know who she is, but I appreciate her gumption. I like the way she stepped on its tail to keep it from getting away.

I’m glad it wasn’t one of her kids.

That would be terrible.

A shotgun would have been more effective. There is a lot to be said for blowing snakes in half.

LOL, I put her name into a search engine, and the first hit was a mug shot of a young hispanic woman arrested for petty theft, shoplifting, in FL. Don’t know if that is her or not, but...I still admired the way she took her first and last shot.

Woman clearly spends time at the range...Guess the goat is headed for therapy sessions...

If it were, I don’t think the first shot while it was coiled around the goat would have been so casual.

I'm pretty sure not.

I have a python (he's 22 yoa). Although he is a "live" feeder, he suffocates his prey before he begins to swallow it.

If she had target picture, aimed, and trigger control, she’d only need one shot.

Number 2 shot or single O 12 gauge buckshot if I were down there (used to live in the Swamps near Naples, FL years ago...), moccasins and rattlers were the only snakes to worry about back then. As for gators..., they were "Endangered"..., so it was "Shoot, Shovel and Shut-up" with a 30-30!

No she doesn’t.. any moron can keep pulling the trigger using the “pray and spray” method.

If I were her I’d get the snake made into a pair of boots,just to remind the other snakes about who’s the boss.

Well, what she did worked, eventually.

If Florida wildlife officials find out who she is she’ll probably be charged.
