Talmud zu Parah 9:3

שָׁתָת מֵהֶן בְּהֵמָה אוֹ חַיָּה, פְּסוּלִין. כָּל הָעוֹפוֹת פּוֹסְלִין, חוּץ מִן הַיּוֹנָה, מִפְּנֵי שֶׁהִיא מוֹצֶצֶת. כָּל הַשְּׁרָצִים אֵינָם פּוֹסְלִין, חוּץ מִן הַחֻלְדָּה, מִפְּנֵי שֶׁהִיא מַלֶּקֶת. רַבָּן גַּמְלִיאֵל אוֹמֵר, אַף הַנָּחָשׁ, מִפְּנֵי שֶׁהִיא מְקִיאָה. רַבִּי אֱלִיעֶזֶר אוֹמֵר, אַף הָעַכְבָּר:

Wenn ein domestiziertes oder wildes Tier von ihnen getrunken hat, sind sie [das Wasser] ungültig. Alle Vögel machen sie [durch Trinken] ungültig, mit Ausnahme der Taube, denn sie saugt [nur] [und kein Spalt verlässt ihren Mund]. Keines der Nagetiere macht es ungültig [durch Trinken], außer dem Wiesel, denn sie überrundet es. Rabban Gamliel sagt: Sogar die Schlange [macht ungültig] dafür erbrechen. Rabbi Eliezer sagt: Sogar die Maus [macht ungültig].

Jerusalem Talmud Terumot

Rebbi Jehudah bar Pazi said, who is the Tanna of pecking? “Rabban Gamliel says, also the snake because it spits out¹⁷²Mishnah Parah 9:3. The Mishnah states that water drawn for the purification rite of the ashes of the red cow becomes unusable if any animal drank from it because some of the animal’s spittle will be mixed with the water. In general, reptiles are reputed not to invalidate the water. Rabban Gamliel declares the snake to invalidate the water because it always will deposit some of its poison. Since the opinion of Rabban Gamliel is a minority opinion not followed in practice, R. Jehudah bar Pazi implies that the Mishnah here does not represent practice..” Rebbi Jonah said, who would turn commandments into peckings for us¹⁷³The rules given here are rules of hygiene, rather than religious observance. Therefore, the reference to Rabban Gamliel is irrelevant and the Mishnah here does represent practice.?
