Almost every single snakebite in a city is caused by escaped pets. And the majority of snakes are not venemous. If people want to be worried about animals, they should be worried about the untrained and poorly controlled dogs they see every day, not the hypothetical snakes that won't even leave the shrubbery.
I live in Australia.

Be safe ❤️
Tbf "we live in Australia" is also a great reply to anyone complaining about snakes.
