And I do not know what it was.And yes, I KNOW snappers are going to instinctually snap.
Mine lived under a bush.
I don't claim mine was a snapper. But it was a reptile, it was an omnivore, and it connected me as a harmless food source to be tolerated.
I'm just pointing out that pet or not, you don't need to kill things for fun, at least I don't, and people who do like to kill things for fun are probably fucked up in the head, and not just in the apparent area.
And organized events that kill things for fun that you bring your kids to take it to the next level. Grooming the next generation of serial killers is not something that I support, and raises to the level of something I'd actively oppose.
Except at that point I'd be publicly opposing the actions of a group of people that probably have a decent selection of serial killers in it, so I'd most likely just keep my mouth shut.
