Snakes and other wild animals bred in captivity are still wild animals, as they are basically identical to those of their fellow species, which are born in the wild.
A species is first domesticated after many generations of selective breeding, where humans choose breeding animals according to particularly desired traits.
It causes genetic changes in the appearance and behaviour of the animals so that they differ from their wild fellow species.
When it comes to exotic animals such as. snakes have only been selectively bred for a limited number of generations.
This breeding has in some cases partly changed the appearance of the animals, but not their basic needs – and these complex and specialized behavioural, environmental and psychological needs are difficult to meet in captivity.
