Hmmm. I've been jumped all over whenever I slipped and used "poisonous" instead of "venomous." I'd gotten the impression from this site that only "venomous" was correct. Like when someone went to the zoo a while ago and took a picture of a poster that said "know your poison" about snake venom, and everyone mocked that poster oodles.
I thought poison was injested, and venom was injected? And to call one the other was something that people should know better than to do?
I watch AP ALL the time. It's the only channel that doesn't get all info-mercally when I'm awake. Other than between 4-8m, I usually watch AP. I've never seen any shows on snakes as pets. Well, except for the one I saw last night about the people with pet rattlesnakes using them to kill people. I love watching their shows on snakes in the wild (just ask the bf what happens when their show on Pythons comes on, lol), but when it comes to responsible pet ownership . . . nothing.
And on that "snake murderer" thing, I saw it on a show about some guy was hiring some hot keeper to kill his mother via snakebites. So they apparently use that phrase a lot.
But snakes, unless it's food, aren't "killers" or "murderers," y'know? The way they phrased it, it seemed like the snake was as eager to 'knock off' this old lady as the guy who hired the snakekeeper to do such.
Bleh.
Cat and Dog planet, indeed. And sometimes birds.
