In Chinese mythology, snakes are often associated with monsters. Some experts on Taoist
customs and beliefs suggest that people put on some decorations with snake designs. Others
recommend that people should buy orchids, tulips, and other yellow-colored flowers. These are
helpful ways to begin 2013, the Year of the Snake, to attract some good luck.
For some people, snakes have long been scary. One reason may be that unlike most other
animals, they have no legs. Another is that some species are deadly poisonous. The other reason
may be that they are silent creatures and can often attack without any warning. When people see
snakes, they often scream, hoping to frighten them away. In fact, they are just wasting
their time. Snakes cannot hear screams because they have no ears. Their eyesight is generally
weak, too. However, they have a good sense of smell and can feel even the smallest vibrations
made by walking animals. Some snakes can also detect heat so that they can hunt at night for
small animals like mice and rabbits. Though they have no arms or legs, they can swallow
their prey, alive and whole. Every animal has its strengths and weaknesses, and snakes are
no exception.
The best way to protect oneself against the bite of a poisonous snake begins long before
seeing one. Before going hiking or picnicking, be sure to wear heavy shoes or boots. Avoid
walking through high grass or over fallen trees. Stay on the hiking paths or in open fields.
Whatever you do, don’t bother to scream.
