Sorry about that. Everyone has brought up good points (at least most). You shouldn't ever hide a pet from your folks tho as that will many times lead to a bad ending on someone's part. Better to be upfront.
Also what country are you living in? I know in the USA that animal abuse is punishable by law... Why would your parents do such a thing, burn a snake...? are you serious? I am actually a fan of snakes having studied herpetology (a branch of zoology for reptiles/amphibians) they are very fascinating creatures. What type of snake was it? A constrictor or a venomous, in that case I would have recommend you let it go where you found it, but I doubt it was venomous because you seem like you caught it and kept it so that must require handling which if it were a venomous snake you would have not wrote this thread if you know what I mean.
Poor snake.. but you should have asked permission first from your parents before you got one as a pet.
I didn't realize that you guys have snakes in Hong Kong. All venomous snakes should be destroyed, I passionately hate them. Saint Patrick had the right idea.
That is terrible how could they kill and burn the snake, thats cruelty to animals and they should be punished!!!!!!!!
burnt it... dont ur parents have ne heart.. dey could have released it in wild.... snakes are the most developed organisms on the earth... der is nuthng ugly abt dem... natures best creation..... cmon u shud have fought for it
I'm sorry for your lost...it's weird to have a snake as a pet, but as long as the creature isn't dangerous, I can't find a reason for your parents attitude
