I wonder what the teacher thought the 'pit' in 'pit-viper' stood for?

There are variations within most kinds of animals. One might think that a science teacher would be able to identify the ones in THAT area. Never mind CO, CA or MT. Try TX.

"I don't know if we will allow snakes back into any of our classrooms."

Typical knee-jerk American Public School reaction. Why not disallow DANGEROUS snakes in the classroom instead?

Or continue to have dangerous snakes there so the kids (not to mention the teachers) can learn what they do look like, but actually use some care and intelligence.....? American Public School System... no, never mind.

GO, HOMESCHOOLERS!!!
