Answer: It was Christmas eve, the grass was wet and it was rather cold outside. As i was walking towards the cattle i use to feed the farm animals i noticed a snake lying on the ground. Knowing that it was cold out side my first instinct was to take it in. When i walked into my warm home my son greeted me with a hug and i showed him the snake i had just found. The snake then jumped at my son, almost biting him so i had no choice but to chase the little guy away.
