From Caleb: the tale of the snake (pun intended)

Guest post tonight from Caleb:


Some of the people at the research institute killed a cobra that was warming itself on a fellow workers doorstep.  The students quickly gathered to inspect the snake; very quickly a general consensus was reached to perform a field dissection.  The students quickly found all of the vital organs and skinned the snake as a very unique souvenir. After the dissection was done Dan and Caleb decided to gut the snake and cook it up for a good cultural experience (although it was latter learned that Zambians don’t really eat snakes).   Once word of the cook out got around to the fellow students everyone wanted to at least try to eat the snake.  After the fact the general consensus was that it tasted like chewy fish and chicken.
Dissecting the cobra... this wouldn't happen on a humanities trip!
Snake Fry! From the description, I don't think it will be anyone's new favorite.
