    snakes are wild animals, they’re inherently a dangerous predator

    That’s how you sound. Have you been outside?

      If you think a snake is even remotely comparable to a freaking bear then you’re just proving my point of you people being completely delusional.

          Not comparable statistic because population differences and the general circumstances. People get bitten by snakes not because snakes hunt people, but because people tend to stumble upon snakes without noticing them. A hungry bear is able to sniff, track and actively hunt you. You cannot even outrun them. You cannot climb up a tree to protect yourself from them either.

            not because snakes hunt people

            Pythons do attack children, although a grown woman is probably safe. Many small venomous snakes are attracted to the warmth of sleeping humans, and don’t take too kindly to the human rolling over / swatting at them in their sleep.

            A hungry bear is able to sniff, track and actively hunt you.

            The vast majority of bear attacks occur when the human either accidentally ambushes the bear, or goes near a bear cub. Afaik only male polar bears hunt humans, and they do it extremely rarely, only as a last resort.
