The correct answer is: dangerous.

Catching snakes can be hazardous for people untrained in the art because snakes can be unpredictable and may bite if they feel threatened. In addition, some snakes are venomous and can deliver a potentially fatal bite. Therefore, it is important to take precautions when catching snakes, such as wearing thick gloves and using a snake hook.
