That, means the fear of snakes.<\/p>\n<p>I had the misfortune of a day-long treat of close proximity to fearsome snakes, at the Snake Park. This is based at The Nairobi Museum.<\/p>\n<p>What I thought would be a horrid day, opened up my eyes to how na\u00efve, misinformed, prejudiced and generally dumb I was towards these creatures.<\/p>\n<p>We grow up listening to endless myths and tales about snakes. For some reason, snakes take the lead role in stories wading in sorcery, black magic, demons and whatnot. This conditioning from an early age to hate snakes has led to a lot of pointless killing of the creature.<\/p>\n<p>Snakes are usually harmless, except for the odd case.<\/p>\n<p>No? Off-head, tell me of anyone you know who\u2019s been bitten by a snake. No one? Thought so.<\/p>\n<p>These statistics are so low &#8211; not because there aren\u2019t snakes where we live. They are low, as snakes deliberately avoid human beings. A bite happens at the extreme end of a probable snake\u2019s biting meter.<\/p>\n<p>For instance, cobras usually slam their bodies up against people instead of biting. It\u2019s a warning, and it works. Vipers, like the Puff Adder, mostly give dry bites. A dry bite is a bite where no venom is injected into the victim.<\/p>\n<p>This is because venom is very hard to make, and takes long. No snake wants to pointlessly waste it on a hysterical human. As a snake, imagine needing venom to immobilize your dinner and not having it &#8211; all for biting a human.<\/p>\n<p>Constrictors, like the python are demonized for how they kill their prey. Most people wrongly think their prey suffocates to death. They actually cut off the prey\u2019s blood flow &#8211; which knocks out the prey.<\/p>\n<p>That means, the prey doesn\u2019t feel anything.<\/p>\n<p>At the snake park at Nairobi Museum, there\u2019s a large variety of snakes, with detailed descriptions of each. There\u2019s so much to learn about snakes and other misconceived reptiles, like crocodiles. This day was an eye opener.<\/p>\n<p>One other good thing is there\u2019s hardly any queues at the entrance. This is due to a cashless payment system adopted at all KWS park entries, in line with a service charter that limits client processing time to a minimum 5 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>Cashless payments at KWS park entry points, including the snake park &#8211; is open to M-Pesa payments, or Visa and Master-card branded bank cards.<\/p>\n<p>In our case, we are <strong>Co-op Bank<\/strong> clients.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/sponsored\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2020\/11\/AA-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-676\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/sponsored\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2020\/11\/AA-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/sponsored\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2020\/11\/AA-1.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/sponsored\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2020\/11\/AA-1-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/sponsored\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2020\/11\/AA-1-768x384.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Entry fees were easily paid via Co-op Bank ATM (Visa) card.
