Yes, snakes can carry Salmonella bacteria. While not all snakes carry Salmonella, some species, particularly those commonly kept as pets, such as certain types of snakes like ball pythons, can harbor these bacteria. It’s important for snake owners to practice good hygiene, such as washing hands thoroughly after handling snakes or cleaning their enclosures, to reduce the risk of Salmonella infection.
