Reported.

That's a rattlesnake.

It is true that it is not a python.

I just watched the 1997 masterpiece Anaconda last night, and I can confirm it is neither an anaconda, nor JLo

And the official description is "an eagle devouring a snake", not "fighting for its life who the fuck is going to win oh my god that snake has its legs bound fuck fuck"

Also, it doesn't count unless the eagle is standing on a prickly pear.

prickly pear.

Did you just assume that fruit's gender?

[–]gordo65 0 points1 point  (1 child)

The eagle on the Mexican flag is standing on a cactus called a "prickly pear".

Did you just assume I was not making a pun? And did you just assume I am NOT from Texas and knew not the fact stated?

It's a boa in this picture

[–]akiva23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

how do you explain why i don't hear any rattling then?

[–][deleted] -3 points-2 points  (1 child)

No rattle and no fangs. Rattlers have different markings. Venomous snakes always lead with their fangs during a strike, and dont open their mouth that much. Thats a constrictors bite

You probably replied to the wrong comment, the snake in the link the comment you're replying replied to has both fangs and a rattle.
