Snakes
We haven't been married for a long time but I'm finding out that my wife is terrified of snakes - and getting more so as she gets older. We were at Natural Bridge Va, walking along the wide edged pat...

When I became an educational volunteer at our local zoo - I HAD to get over any fear of snakes; and the more I learned about them, the more interesting they got. Then, as I graduated to "Animal Handler" - I appreciated the fact that snakes are very clean animals - they only defecate occasionally, as opposed to birds...LOL!! I was really PROUD of the people who overcame their fear enough to listen to our talks about snakes; and then blown away by those who actually touched the snake I was holding for them!
So "knowledge is power" - but I understand that some folks are so petrified of snakes, that they can't even attempt to learn about them.
And I'm saddened by anyone who deliberately kills a snake just because it's a snake :-( Besides being unnecessary - it could get expensive if someone sees them kill an endangered species....
