There’s more complex mythology connected with snakes than any other group of creatures on the planet. In western culture snakes are associated with the unapologetically evil from the Book of Genesis to Harry Potter. Phallic, poisonous, legless, undulating, sinister, cold-blooded, unblinking: they stand for the wild world at its most inhuman and therefore most threatening. As a logical extension of this, snakes have come to represent all the evil in the world, everything that is dangerous and disturbing. Which is tough load for any creature to bear. It’s the poison thing that does it, I suppose. Actually the correct word is venom: poison is ingested or inhaled, venom is injected. Intuitive human taxonomy places snakes in two classes: venomous and non-venomous. There are around 3,000 species of snakes, and less than a quarter of them are venomous; of these, only about a third are capable of killing a human. However, it has to be admitted that the idea of 250 species all coming to get you at the same time is as compelling as it is irrational.
