That's where Jen Lewis, a wildlife rehabilitator who works at the Kennel Shop, identified it as a python. The snakes kill prey with their teeth but are not poisonous, she said.

Gee, and I always thought that reticulated pythons were constrictors. I had no idea they killed with their teeth... :rolleyes:

Oh, and is anyone other than me curious whether an 8 foot retic would even FIT in the water pipes, let alone, squeeze out and into the barrel of the washer? :confused:

HAHAHA Garters are venomous too now right?

The news does such a poor job of research. You would think they'd study or be prepared for the job but I guess not.

I never find good stuff! :tears::(
