It was very aggressive. In those days a snake that big would be this high off the ground, ready to strike, you know, defend itself. And I was not afraid of big snakes. It’s knowledge or fear is a lack of knowledge, actually. So I knew what I had to do. I had to take a stick with a hook on it, a hooked limb and pull the snake’s head toward me. And then you have to drop the stick and grab the neck of the snake.
