a few days ago, on the radio news there was a story about snakes as being a food source ..
Eating SNAKE is better for the environment than eating beef or chicken, study claims - so, would you try a python pie?
Experts from Macquarie University in Sydney claim that eating snake is better for the environment than eating beef, chicken, or even fish.
Pythons don't need to eat much because they don't expend much energy, and grow rapidly during farming.
In comparison, the likes of chicken and beef are farmed intensively and require vast amounts of land and feeding, which causes a strain on natural resources.
Regular measurements of the pythons showed they continued to grow even when being given food as little as once per week.
