    Rural elders often say that pigs are the nemesis of snakes, is it true? What's the point?

  2. Anonymous users2024-02-12

    I think it's true that pigs are the nemesis of snakes, because in the wild many pigs are very aggressive and have rough skin and thick meat. As long as you face this large creature, there is no way to do it, you can only let the pigs eat it. Moreover, the digestive ability of the pig's stomach is very strong, even if the snake is highly poisonous, it is not afraid.

    It's all superstitious sayings, and you have to believe in science.

    Because pigs have antibodies to snake venom, pigs are not afraid of snake bites, and pigs will eat snakes, so pigs are said to be the nemesis of snakes.

    This statement is not true, and there is no scientific basis, and in many cases, wild boars do not take the initiative to attack snakes, and generally wild boars will actively attack snakes when they are hungry.

    I don't think so. Because in ancient times, the elderly would often say that the genera were compatible. I feel that pigs and snakes are not compatible. Pigs eat snakes, so pigs are the nemesis of snakes. But there is no scientific basis for this.

    This statement is true, but this pig is not the pig that everyone knows at home that is used to kill and eat meat, but a wild boar, the skin of the wild boar is thick, the hair is tippy, and the snake cannot hurt it, on the contrary, the snake is the delicacy of the wild boar, and the wild boar will eat it as soon as it sees the snake.

    Wild boars are heavily armed animals with long hairs on their bodies and are particularly hard. Although it has regular boar teeth, it is obviously useless to deal with snakes, but the hard long hair can make the wild boar invincible for snakes, not to mention the thick pig skin.

    Strictly speaking, pigs are not snakes' nemesis. There is a scientific saying that pigs are afraid of snakes in their bones, because snakes can harm pig cubs. But it is precisely because of this fear that the pig will stomp on snakes that are within its range, and eventually eat them.

    This is because pigs are born and instinctively have the ability to defeat snakes, and even pigs have a certain immunity to the venom of poisonous snakesWild boars are the natural enemies of snakes, especially poisonous snakes, it is difficult to attack wild boars, pigs are one of our most common domestic animals, under artificial breeding, it is difficult to see what intersection pigs and snakes have, because the current domestic pigs are large-scale breeding, and the current pig farms are cement floors, so snakes rarely appear in the life range of pigs, therefore, domestic pigs are not the nemesis of snakes.

    In the wild, wild boars like to do when foraging is to dig with their own tusks or noses, wild boars digging for two main purposes: one may be that wild boars are digging their own burrows, after all, wild boars are burrowing animals, and they have a strong ability to dig holes; One is rummaging for insects or worms in the soil, after all, worms and insects under the soil are one of the main proteins** of wild boars. That's right, it's true, pigs are indeed the nemesis of snakes, pigs eat snakes, just like people eat noodles, swishing twice to eat a snake into it, don't think this is an exaggeration, there is indeed this kind of "pig" in reality, but this kind of pig is not an ordinary domestic pig, but a wild boar in the mountains, or a miscellaneous pig raised in the mountains.

    Snakes are not afraid of the pig itself, mainly because pig feces and goose feces are harmful to snakes, for example, if a snake accidentally climbs on the pig's feces, it will cause the snake's ** ulceration, so many snakes will not haunt or make nests where there are pigs.

    No, the pig is not the nemesis of the snake, the nemesis of the snake is the eagle or the dog, because the pig is a forage animal, and the reaction is very slow, it is not a match for the snake at all, but they can get along with each other very well.

    I think this depends on the situation, the domestic pig has weak resistance, and it must belong to the weak side when facing the snake, but for the wild boar, the skin is thicker, and it has a certain immunity to venom, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the nemesis of the snake.

    The reason why the pig is not afraid of snakes is entirely because it does not have the concept of being afraid of poisonous snakes, and because it has rough skin and thick meat.

    The reason why humans are afraid of snakes is because of a self-protective behavior, which has nothing to do with the size of guts, but because humans subconsciously resist this animal. According to scientists, the fear of snakes in humans may have been inherited from primitive times.

    We humans have advanced intelligence, so there will be fear, fear and other psychological behaviors, but the pig is not an animal, and it lives in the pigsty all day long, and can hardly see other animals.

    Therefore, it has no fear of snakes, although snakes are terrible, but it can't parry such a large pig, if the pig tramples on the snake with its hooves, then the snake is likely to die tragically at the feet of the pig.

    The body of the wild boar is a substance that is immune to snake venom

    Wild boars with crusty fur and thick skin have a very mixed diet, bamboo shoots, herbs, bird eggs, mushrooms, hares, mountain rats, poisonous snakes, centipedes, as long as they can eat, they have to eat everything.

    Although scientists are not yet conclusive on whether wild boars are immune to toxins, it is clear that wild boars have not died from eating poisonous food.

    After the wild boar swallows the poisonous snake, the fangs of the poisonous snake will bite the inner wall of the wild boar's belly, and the wild boar's belly soaked in various Chinese herbs for a long time has its own set of tricks to heal the wound, and will give birth to granulation tissue at the base of the wound, and then form fibrous tissue and scar tissue.

    Snakes are an important class of creeping animals on the earth, degenerate limbs in the course of more than 100 million years of evolution, and there are currently more than 3,000 species of snakes in the world, of which poisonous snakes account for about 15%, about 450 species, and the venom produced by these snakes is harmful to humans. The snake has a very wide dispersal and is spread almost all but the polar regions.

    Snakes like to hide in the cool and moist **, because they are ectotherms, when the temperature is too low to come out to bask in the sun, otherwise they may be frozen. Snakes can be seen in mountains, woodlands, shrubs, and even grasslands and deserts, and snakes are often found in human settlements, especially in some areas in the south. Snakes are an important link in the food chain in their area, they eat a large number of rodents, and they also have many natural predators, such as flathead brother can be immune to local snake venom, and snake eating is like eating spicy strips.

    In addition, snake eagles and snake midges can easily dispose of snakes and treat snakes as food.

    Animals around us such as cats, it is also the nemesis of snakes, because the fear of snakes lies in its attack speed, but it just so happens that felines are good at flexibility and speed, snakes basically have no way to take cats, first of all, the speed is not as fast as home, and at the same time, it is necessary to be continuously subjected to "cat punches", which can only be confused. Today's domestic pigs are the Eurasian wild boars domesticated by humans, belonging to a subspecies of it, which in essence does not exist at present and is still isolated, and belongs to the same species, but has lost its wildness. Pigs are omnivorous, and wild boars often eat snakes in the wild, even domestic pigs.

    Some domestic pigs in the countryside are kept in cages, and sometimes snakes will visit, and the pigs will bite and trample quickly, and the snakes will die after a meal, and finally become pig food.

    Pig skin is rough and thick, especially some wild boars, with hair like steel needles, it is difficult for snakes to bite directly on the body of pigs, even if they bite victoriously, it is difficult to bite the scalp hair, even if the poisonous snake has no way. Snakes naturally retreat from this large creature that is not suitable for their own consumption, and they are more fearful. It can't bite through, and at the same time it can't be entangled, so it can only be bitten and ravaged by pigs.

    In our local area, the houses are usually located some distance away from the pigsty, usually in areas close to the woods. In the countryside, there were more snakes before. These snakes sometimes come into the house to steal chickens, even though they can't eat a whole chickenBut sometimes there are still snakes that bite and kill the hens in the family.

    In order to prevent snakes from biting old hens, some farmers will raise several large white geese.

    Because the white goose has a strong sense of territory, it is very alert, and it is also very warlike, so if a snake comes close, it will immediately expel it. If you're lucky, the snake will be able to escape. And if you are unlucky, then you will be bullied to death by the big white goose, after all, the big white goose is the head of the "three tyrants" in the countryside.

    The farmer built the pigsty outside, so that he was not afraid of the snake biting him? In the words of the old man in the countryside, pigs are indeed not afraid of snakes and dare to eat snakes, and if they are put into the ordinary snakes in the past, if they run into the pig house, the conclusion can only be crushed to death and then swallowed.

    Pigs' personal standards have significant advantages, and strong internal strength, perhaps from the lazy surface of the pig people see a chubby and likable appearance, in the career of breeding they make a living from the villagers' concentrate feed and water and their leftovers, but from the aspect of molecular biology the pig is an omnivorous, not only with the help of green grass concentrate feed as the dominant, pigs also eat meat. It's just that the living environment is limited, they are raised, and the goal of the farmers themselves is to eat meat and make money, how can there be meat products to feed them. Pig copper head iron arm, and the size of the very large is not an exaggeration in the word mighty, hard hair,

    The thick layer of fat combined with the huge body gives the shape of the pig a pair of natural armorAnd the ability to protect safety is not generally strong, in response to the general black snake, the external standard of the pig is already conducive to being invincible without fighting. I think that because adult pigs are heavier and have a hard and thick epidermis, even if they are bitten by centipedes, the level of poisoning symptoms will be much lighter than that of people, and it is not easy to die, so everyone thinks that pigs are not afraid of snakes, which is the reason why snakes are nemesis.
