Snakes are now listed as protected animals. This is good news for snakes. Whether they are poisonous or non-venomous, they have a life-saving amulet. Nowadays, we often see newspapers reporting on the investigation and punishment of vendors who resell snakes, as well as the investigation and punishment of restaurants that use snakes as their main ingredient. The main reason why snakes are listed as protected animals is that the natural environment has been severely damaged and snakes are in danger of survival. It is also because humans are greedy and have driven all snakes to extinction. Especially when the supply of snakes is becoming increasingly tight, Live snakes are sold at a high price in the market, causing snake catchers to take illegal risks and scurry through the mountains and ravines in search of snakes like a treasure hunt. The merits and demerits of snakes have been praised and denounced simultaneously since ancient times. There is a beautiful story in "The Legend of the White Snake" in which Lady White Snake sacrificed her life to save Xu Xian, and the story is well known to every household. The Indians tamed a giant python to take care of the children of the family. The python obeyed the owner's instructions and did not allow the children to cross the thunder pond. It sounds like a fantasy, but this is a true story. The python has the same spirituality as humans. . For snake dancers, as long as the artist blows the flute, the snake will dance with the sound of the flute, which will amaze you (actually, snakes have no hearing). In those years when rats were infested, humans hoped that snakes, the natural enemies of rats, would grow rapidly in groups. Snakes have great medicinal uses. For example, snake venom contains complex protein toxins, whose components are proteins or polypeptides and have strong toxicological effects. According to records, the medicinal value of snake venom: 1. Anti-cancer effect. In 1953, American medical scientists such as Conache and Duke used cobra venom to treat 115 cases of cancer and found that it had obvious analgesic effects. In some cancer cases, snake venom can slow tumor growth, control metastasis, and even completely scar. effect. In 1967, Indian medical scientist Lacourt extracted a substance called cytotoxin P6 from the venom of cobras produced in India, which had a significant inhibitory effect on Yoshida sarcoma. He also purified an arginine esterase from the venom of the Malaysian red-mouthed viper, which can eliminate plaques formed by cancer metastasis on blood vessel walls. In recent years, the Shenyang Military General Hospital has used viper venom combined with chemotherapy to treat osteosarcoma patients, significantly extending the patient's survival time. 2. Snake venom treats stomach problems. Using snake venom to treat digestive tract ulcers has the advantages of relieving pain, increasing food intake, promoting sleep and increasing weight. 3. Treat cerebral thrombosis and vasculitis. The No. 238 Hospital of the People's Liberation Army has used thrombus-clearing enzyme preparations isolated from adder venom to treat more than 800 cases of cerebral thrombosis and vasculitis. After treatment, it was observed that it can promote sleep and increase diet in patients with cerebral thrombosis; it can also help patients with vasculitis. It can relieve pain quickly and improve appetite and sleep. Some hemiplegic patients with cerebral thrombosis can also make the hemiplegia disappear and recover. Snakes also have many uses, such as beautifying and moisturizing the skin, and their skin can be used to make high-end musical instruments, too many to mention. The fairy tale of snakes has not been verified, so it is up to you to believe it or not. It's just an interesting thing to listen to after dinner. According to records, in the Dagang Mountain area of ??Ningde, Fujian Province, the mountains are high and densely forested. The virgin forest stretches for hundreds of miles. There are countless snakes in the mountains with various varieties. Snakes often appear in the mountains. Legend has it that a couple was driving through this mountainous area. The wife saw a large snake lying on the road and urged her husband to crush the snake to death. Then, his wife hurriedly jumped out of the car to pick up the dead snake. Unexpectedly, she was hit by a speeding jeep from behind and died instantly. The husband cried loudly and regretted that he should not have crushed the big snake to death. A few months later, another Dongfeng truck drove through the mountainous area. The driver suddenly saw a giant python nearly two or three meters long, crossing the road leisurely. The driver was also surprised when he saw it. He stepped on the accelerator and accelerated towards the snake. The snake jumped up injured, and its tail shattered the windshield. One of the shards of glass pierced the driver's heart. Blood spurted out, and he died. The car hit a hill and rolled over. Local people talk about snakes with a bad attitude, but villagers rarely harm or kill snakes. The villagers said that snakes are animals with spiritual energy and celestial energy and cannot be killed or cooked. The people here are not necessarily very aware of the protection of wild snakes, but they are still somewhat superstitious. Snakes will not attack people unless you hit them. If you step on it, it will instinctively turn back and bite your foot, spraying venom and knocking you down. When people are walking on the mountain road, "to alert the snake" is very appropriate here. You hold a stick in your hand, a flexible stick is best. While walking, scratch and hit the grass. If there is a snake in the grass, it will be frightened and run away. Hitting a snake with a hard straight wooden stick is the most dangerous action because the stick's impact point is small and it is difficult to knock down the snake. The cork stick is elastic and will stick to the ground when hitting a snake, making the snake more likely to be hit. Hit the snake seven inches, which is the vital part of the snake. If you hit this part, the snake will not be able to move. Especially the famous venomous snake "King of Glasses". When you fail to hit it with your first blow, it will immediately attack you angrily, raise its neck, and spray venom up to two or three meters away, which is like hitting you in the eye. It will make you blind. When you encounter this kind of situation where you are not absolutely certain to kill the snake with a stick, it is best not to act rashly and let the snakes slowly leave on their own, without invading each other, and in peace. I once ran over a king cobra on a bicycle. Maybe I didn't have enough pressure. The snake got angry and chased me. Half of its body was on the ground and half of its body was in the air. It was as fast as flying. It scared me so much that I pedaled as hard as I could and ran away. Afterwards, I thought to myself that I was still scared. Never dare to take such a risk again. Snakes are harmful to humans, especially venomous snakes. Snakes are extremely venomous and their bites can cause death and disability, which is an unforgivable crime.

That year, after the typhoon, the upstream flash floods released, carrying a large number of venomous snakes into the sea. Snakes that had been tortured by the typhoon could be seen everywhere along the coastline. My wife, who had been married for less than a month, was working in a forest farm. Unfortunately, she was bitten by an unknown venomous snake while cleaning up a fallen tree in the evening. Colleagues organized rescue operations, first treating the wounds and squeezing out the congestion. Two domestic dogs raised in the forest farm were asked to take turns licking the blood from the wound. As a result, both dogs were poisoned and died. Colleagues rushed the wife to a nearby health center for rescue. The pain was unbearable and the wife screamed and was unconscious for three days and three nights. The sisters of my colleagues all thought that my wife could not be saved, and secretly cried bitterly. God has eyes, maybe my wife is not destined to die, but my 24-year-old wife surprisingly survived. However, the wife's strong body was losing weight day by day, and she looked like a completely different person. The sequelae left behind have tortured her all her life. Venomous snakes are animals that will not rest in peace. When you chop off its head with a knife, the head of the snake has been separated. Let me tell you this: Never think that snakes are dead. If you are not careful and touch its head with your hands, it is very likely that your finger will be bitten by the chopped off snake head. The risk is the same as a live snake bite, which is fatal. Because snake meat can beautify the skin and activate blood circulation, snake blood can cure rheumatism, snake gall can improve eyesight, and there are many more medicinal functions. Dishes made from snakes are world-famous. In addition to protecting wild snakes, people have set up artificial snake farms for medicinal and vegetable use. Southerners like to eat snakes. Usually, the snake is killed, the liver is removed, chopped into half-inch-long segments, boiled in a pot, added with ingredients, and when the snake meat is cooked, the segment-shaped snake meat is peeled off bit by bit. The soup is delicious and very delicious. tasty. It can also be prepared with seasonings and fried in oil, making it crispy and delicious. There are also dragon and tiger fights (snake and cat), dragon and tiger fights (snake and chicken), dragon and tiger fights (snake and cat and chicken), etc., which are all good practices. I disagree with their method of killing snakes. For some people who are afraid of snakes, just looking at this will make them nauseous. How can we talk about tasting delicious food? I'm not bragging! I can cleanly separate the skin, meat, intestines, and bones of a live gray snake weighing three to five kilograms in ten minutes. Now I will introduce this method to you, you might as well give your knife skills a try. In order to make it easier to master, the essentials are explained in a "five-step method", which will inevitably be repeated. 1. Kill the snake, remove its intestines and skin it. Tie the snake around its head and hang it at a high place so that its tail does not touch the ground. (If it is a venomous snake, its head should be smashed to eliminate future troubles). Use a knife to draw a circle around the snake's neck, and use scissors to cut from the circle to the white-bellied snake's skin from top to bottom. Cut off the throat and esophagus, pull it down with your hands, and remove all the snake's internal organs. Use your hands to pull the snake skin down from the neck to the anus. At this step, the snake intestines and snake skin have been separated. Special instructions: If you need to take blood, chop the snake's tail into a section before killing it, and put a little white wine in a bowl to catch the blood dripping from the snake's tail. Drinking this blood can cure rheumatic joint disease. 2. Separate the rib meat from the spine meat: On both sides of the anal opening, use a knife to go up from the anal opening and insert the knife close to the spine, and pull apart a small section to separate the rib meat from the spine. Use your hands to pull the rib meat and bone pieces cut out by the knife, and pull it up with force. You will only hear a clicking sound. Once you pull it, it will reach the neck. The rib meat pieces and the spine will be separated. Use the knife to cut them off for later use. In the same way, separate the other piece of rib meat from the backbone. In this step, the two pieces of rib meat are separated from the backbone meat. 3. Separate the bones and meat from the ribs. Take the meat end of the ribs near the neck, carefully separate the rib diaphragm from the meat with your hands, tear open the "meat piece and rib diaphragm" with both hands, and pull it to the anus end. In this step, the separation of the rib diaphragm and rib meat is completed. In this step, one side is clean snake meat, without any bones. On the other side, there is the rib membrane, which is basically meat-free. 4. Separation of spinal meat. This piece of vertebrae first peels off the sticky flesh on the bones. Then, chop the vertebrae into pieces, put them into clean water, use a toothpick to pass through the middle of the spine, and poke out the marrow in the spine. It is said that eating bone marrow will cause armpit odor, so it is better not to eat it and throw it away. Boil the cleaned vertebrae in a pot. If the meat is rotten, carefully peel off the meat and discard the bones. (Snake bones are particularly hard, so be careful not to pierce them.) The water soup is highly nutritious. Save the snake meat for cooking. This step completes the separation of the spine and flesh. 5. Processing snake skin: Snake skin is crispy and delicious, high in protein and rich in nutrients. Blanch the peeled snake skin in boiling water, scrape off the scales with a knife, and chop into small pieces for use in cooking.
