Cuddling and sleeping with comfy pillows and stuffed animals is a go-to option for many, particularly young children, but the case of this little girl, who prefers to cuddle with snakes, is certainly unusual. Yes, you read that correctly. It all unfolded when a video of a young girl named Ariana surrounded by several snakes went viral on the internet. It seems to be a daily encounter for the little munchkin, but it isn’t for the internet community, and rightfully so.
Regardless of their temperament, snakes are unpredictable and possess the potential to impose harm on young children. Shared by Instagram user Ariana, this clip has garnered significant traction, sparking several concerns and fascinations among social media viewers.
The video unfolds to show Ariana lying down calmly amidst ten sizable Ball Pythons slithering within a suitcase. Another video of the Instagram user shows Ariana cuddling with the ten snakes on her bed while taking a nap. Undoubtedly, this reptile can give chills even to the bravest of hearts, but Ariana appears entirely composed, confronting the snakes calmly as if they were familiar companions.
Sharing the video on her official handle, the user wrote, “Surprise in the Suitcase! Opening my suitcase for the next ‘Snake Master Exotics’ adventure and guess who’s joining? Ariana and her 10 ball pythons!”
Have a look at the spine-chilling video:

Needless to say, the video took the internet by storm, amassing more than 262,000 likes. The share also prompted a wave of reactions from viewers online. Many expressed their discomfort with the scenario, while others did not fail to highlight the inherent dangers of allowing a child to have such close encounters with pythons.
An Instagram user wrote, “I don’t care what they say, this is child abuse.”
“I pray they never wrap around her and take her life,” another added.
Another commented, “I don’t like this at all and it makes me sick to the stomach.”
A user explained, “Everyone has zero clue that ball pythons are ridiculously docile, and this is their max size. They cannot eat humans and they won’t even try because it’s a waste of their energy.”
A furious Instagrammer said, “Snakes are snakes, they are not cats and dogs. They will eat her. Adults should know better.”
“Not cute at all, this will surely squeeze her to death someday,” expressed an individual.
