Look what happens when some loser lost his pet retic: http://www.eveningsun.com/local/ci_2...n-goes-checkup

I honestly wonder if people are really releasing their pet snakes, cause to me, it seems more likely that they are just escaping. I want to see someone who actually openly admits that they released their pet python and didn't just lose it, because all I've ever heard was that the snake either escaped its enclosure or vanished while set outside to bask/explore. (I guess that counts as unintentional release.)
But I haven't heard anyone openly say that they intentionally abandoned their python. (except the loser in the trailer park who said they were going to run it over with a lawn mower)
