well, as it turns out, it's not the body you have to worry about.

3 threads about snakes and one about a pastor getting eaten by a croc during a baptism, all on the front page of the OT. This place is giving me the heebie jeebies.

How do you get close enough to a venomous snake without getting bitten to have enough force to kill it with a shovel

Ask your husband

n warm-blooded animals, our high metabolisms are a significant disadvantage when being decapitated. Just a few minutes without oxygen and a mammal's brain is caput—the result of a massive cascading cellular die-off. Not so with cold-blooded reptiles. Their slow metabolism sustains their internal organs for far longer than a mammals causing them to completely die far more slowly
I would consider the fact that a quick death would be a significant advantage if I were decapitated. To each their own, I guess.

Seems like you're within the range to be bit at that point, unless you're overhand axing it, but seems like it'd be easy to lose the shovel and the downward motion puts you in range, yet again if you miss

A garden hoe works better if you can't shoot it

the rule is cut off the head and bury it, not cut off the head and pick it up.

I always thought this video of a decapitated snake biting itself was pretty cool. (Youtube video, 2 minutes long, bite happens at 25 seconds into the video)

I once saw the severed head of an alligator snapping turtle kill a chick.
