Snakes can eat snakes, but why can t snakes eat yellow eels?

In everyone's opinion, the shape of an eel is similar to that of a snake, but eels cannot attack humans, so people are not afraid when they see an eel. Many people even think that eel is delicious and regard it as a dish in their lives. But then again, why don't snakes eat eels?

Some old people in rural areas often say, "Snakes eat yellow eels and beg for death." "So is that really the case?

Hearing this, some people believe that snakes threaten their lives because they eat yellow eels. It may be that the snake's digestive system is not good enough to digest the spine that supports the eel's movement. But this statement is not accurate, because snakes have excellent digestion and can eat creatures several times larger than themselves.

Even hard antelope bones and horns can be digested, not to mention the spine of a yellow eel. Therefore, it is not correct to say that "snakes eat yellow eels and die".

The reason why snakes don't eat eels is because there are no studies that show that snakes take eels as their own food, and because eels live in muddy water and snakes crawl on land, there are few encounters between them. If it must be said that snakes eat yellow eels to find death, then I am afraid it can only be said that snakes cannot live in muddy water like yellow eels.

If you put the snake and the eel together, the snake's combat effectiveness is obviously much stronger, and some netizens took pictures of the snake swallowing the eel and then leaving as if nothing happened. So the snake will not be killed by the eel's bones when it eats. Everyone should look at these folk rumors rationally and avoid the occurrence of rumors.

Yellow eel is a mollusc fish with a particularly strong growth adaptation, as long as it is a wet and cold place, then it is an oxygen-deficient environment, and it can also survive for a few days. Ordinary snakes, even if they have the guts to eat yellow eels, have to endure for a long time, so most snakes do not hunt yellow eels. The elderly in the countryside often deal with nature, and when they see a lot of things, they conclude this view.

To say, "No matter how powerful a snake is, it is not good to eat yellow eel", because we simply cannot understand the mental activity of snakes. No one knows if they dare to eat it or if they don't like it. In fact, there is also a proverb in the countryside:

Snakes eat yellow eels - tired of life", which is very vivid. The ** of the yellow eel secretes mucus, once caught, the mucus will accidentally scrape off the hand; Slime is self-defensive** and can easily escape even when encountering powerful predators. If the snake swallows the eel, the whole body should also be slippery, and even the digestive enzymes cannot digest the eel in a short time.

Do snakes eat yellow eels? <>

Don't deliberately believe what the rural old man says, do a simple test, after all, the cost of yellow eel is not very high. "Once, on New Year's Day, the water in the village flowed out of the pond, and I followed the neighbors to catch a lot of fish. At that time, it did not deliberately choose any fish, large and small, and the fish species were also very mixed.

When I got home, I found two yellow eels, one of which was mixed with a mud snake, and the next day I found another one. As a result, snakes may also eat yellow eels, but in the wild it is possible to prey on a wider range of passages, which is less likely.

Why are snakes afraid to eat yellow eels? <>

In our rural area, there is a saying that may mean that snakes are spirit animals, in fact, referring to IQ. Many snakes do have a certain IQ, and skills such as recognition, memory, etc., may be better, such as cobras, five-step snakes, etc., and we do not rule out that other snakes also have this ability. However, it is very troublesome for snakes to swallow yellow eels.

The skeleton of a yellow eel is made up of individuals. When the snake has devoured the whole eel, it cannot digest it. After a few days, the snake may only be tortured to death.

As long as the snake has a certain IQ, it can remember this"Lessons"。

The power of rumors <>

The most fundamental reason is that they have never seen snakes eat yellow eels, and the indirect reason is rumors. It is said that after the snake swallows the eel, it is difficult for the snake to digest because the eel is straight and hard in the snake's stomach after death. At this time, when the snake walks again, it will be strangled to death by the eel.

It shows the power of rumors, so don't believe them when you're not experimenting.

Conclusion<>

Of course, we don't deny that it's just a matter of probability. Moreover, the likelihood of this is very low, just like we humans sometimes choke on tofu and then don't breathe. Anything can happen in the world.

The reason why snakes eat yellow eels, not because of yellow eels, but because snakes accidentally commit suicide, but the probability of this happening is almost zero.

Although there are many common sayings and old sayings circulating in the countryside, and the old people in the village always say them, we can often find that on the surface, these words are not necessarily true. But if you find out what they mean, you'll feel that they're true. For example, the phrase "snakes eat yellow eels, everyone dies".

In rural areas, "snakes eat yellow eels, everyone dies" is still an afterword, called "snakes eat yellow eels - looking for death". Because everyone knows that snakes don't have teeth that they can chew, they swallow everything they eat. And the yellow eel and the snake are both "strip-like" animals, so the snake eating the yellow eel is basically putting a layer of snake skin on the yellow eel.

The reason why the countryside says "snakes eat yellow eels - looking for death" is because the older generation believes that after the yellow eel dies, the bones will be straight and stiff, which will make the snake ossified, unable to swim, and finally be killed alive. But this argument is actually unreasonable, because snakes have a very strong digestive ability, even bones can digest it. Otherwise, snakes often eat some relatively large animals, and if the bones can't be digested, then I don't know how many times they have died.

However, the purpose of this sentence said by rural people is not to talk about the yellow eel and snakes, but to use such an incident to tell people to learn to do what they can when doing things, and not to do something that they can't do, otherwise they will be hurt in the end.

As we all know, snakes have never regarded the yellow eel as their prey, and the yellow eel has a backbone that supports movement, which is not easy to digest, but the snake does not eat the yellow eel, not entirely because the spine is not easy to digest, because everyone knows that the snake has a very strong digestive system, not only can eat animals larger than their own size, but also digest the hard bones and horns of the antelope, so just a yellow eel backbone, the snake can still digest it.

In general, "snakes eat yellow eels and look for death." It does not mean that snakes can't fight against the yellow eel, or can't digest it, but because their living environment is different, generally speaking, the yellow eel will appear in lakes, ponds, rivers and other moist muddy waters, and the snake goes to this strange environment, it is very likely to be stuck in the quagmire and unable to escape, and even encounter other animals to hunt, so some people will say that snakes eat yellow eels are looking for death.

The death process of the yellow eel after being seriously injured is very slow, the snake has no chewing function After swallowing the yellow eel, it is tantamount to the Monkey King in the belly of the princess of the iron fan, and the snakes that can eat the yellow eel are all exterminated by the yellow eel, this is nature, just like people will hide when they see the snake instinctively, that is because the people who do not hide the snake are basically extinct.

There are several reasons why you can't eat snakes:

1. Snake meat contains a large number of parasites.

and germs. Snakes feed on wild animals such as frogs and rats, and contain more parasites in their bodies, because the parasites are extremely vigorous, they cannot all be killed in a high-temperature heating environment, if humans eat them, the parasites may parasitize into the human body, absorb a large amount of vitamins, compete with the host for nutrition, and cause damage to the host's tissues and organs.

3. From a health point of view, it is not advisable to eat snakes.

Snakes are covered with parasites due to the problems of their living environment. And the general cooking method should not kill these parasites, and it will lead to cross-infection after human use. In addition, excessive consumption of wild meat will also be more likely to lead to the evolution of the virus, so that those diseases that humans should not have caused harm to the human body, such as SARS.

At the same time poisonous snakes. If you do not pay attention to fishing or eating, it is easy to be poisoned and threaten the safety of human life.

Snakes can basically eat it, as long as you don't eat snake venom. Cauliflower snake is a non-venomous snake that can be eaten, but because most cauliflower snakes live in the wild, there will be a lot of parasites on their bodies, so they must be cleaned and thoroughly cooked when eating to improve food safety.

Snakes have bacteria on their bodies, and you can't eat them until you kill them with this heat. Snake meat is indeed delicious.
