You guys want to hear a weird one ?
In early may as I stopped in my gravel drive and opened a R door to get a gas can out I looked over to the brush in the fence row and saw a snake that must be a cobra IMO. Why ? it stood up like a cobra, it's head bent at the top like one and the neck flattened some it was tan on the back a little gold on the side s and ivory belly 6-7 ' about like a 3/4 garden hose width ,had green eyes too. It starred at me and I back at it for 15 sec A bout a week before at night 11pm a car stops out front and I was keeping an eye on it after a few min the guy gets out with a small box and a flashlite then scurries back to the drivers seat 4 mins later he has a dresser drawer does the same thing but ran for his life . mins later using thee lite picks up the drawer and flees. thru the summer I could here this large snake moving kind of following me and i saw a strange black snake and almost stepped on the tail of a shiny brass snake with broken rock like scales . a month ago I called animal control they refused to come out unless I knew it was trapped somewhere It was usually in one fence row ,with 10 people we maybe could have got it. I put down super shock powder to chase it away hopeing it would go to a 20 acre field next door and then die over the winter . I saw a neighbor out and said ""watch out for a snake " he blurted out "what color ?" and says he saw it 4 ft away when I said Tan and his dog died after getting out . in thousand Oaks Cal. last week there was a cobra on the loose that was finnally caught ... hope it was the only one . |

So.... you saw a cobra where you live? You story is not worded so well..... but if that is the deal, do you not own a shot-gun or something? If not, I think I would have bought one. Legal or not, if I'd have found it it wouldn't have lived long.
We aren't supposed to have bob-cats here but we do. Every now and again, one gets shot. Pretty sure I saw one one evening at dusk. Went to get a rifle, when I got back out it was gone. |

That's an eastern hog nosed snake aka a spreadhead. It rises up like a cobra and flattens it head like a cobra. Look it up on Missouri conservation website. I saw one several years ago spooky looking dam thing!

Wikipedia has an interesting page on these snakes...but they say the max length is 45 inches...they say they have a particular fondness for toads and are immune to the toads' toxins...

All snakes are the same. They should all be fed to mongooses. Or fed led pellets from the end of a .410.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
