Please help, I lost my snake in my car :(

What kind of car?
Check the heater core under the dash. That is the only heat source in a vehicle other than the sun heating it. Not the greatest heat sorce for a snake either. Normal operating temperature is around 215 degrees.

Its a 2012 Mazda 3 sedan. We took out the dash and the AC and looked behind it she wasn't there :/ I have no idea where else she could be.

Anytime I go to a reptile show whether I plan on buying anything or not, I always take along an empty beer cooler with a latching top, it's secure and it's also insulated so it protects against temperature extremes.

Good luck finding your snake, but 4 days later I'm not sure your odds are great at this point.

I have been following this thread, and was wondering if you really searched your trunk well, like under the trunk carpet, in the spare tire and the spare tire well. I know for a fact that by law there must be spaces behind the back seat for air circulation. and small holes in the trunk for the same reason. also look in the rear lights, if there is enough space for you to put your hand to change a bulb there is enough room for a small snake to hide. I am so sorry she was lost, but you might still find her. Don't beat yourself up over it. We all make mistakes, I'm 64 years old and have made plenty, and plan on making a lot more, can't help it, if your alive you make them, When i stop making mistakes it means i'm no longer here.
so keep searching you never can tell when or where she may pop out.

Oh the irony, Mr. Post 124...:rolleyes:

123 posts is the tangible evidence of community support in a situation most of us can relate to because we have EMPATHY.

I'm still following your thread and sending my heartfelt wishes that your little girl comes slithering out. All I know is that I'm GRATEFUL not to have the soul-sucking lack of empathy that a couple of people in this thread do. MOST of us are rooting for you and your snake!

Hey Matt, if you noticed, folks here were nice enough by not returning the favor of beating YOU up due to your lack of proofreading and punctuation skills.

I really hope you find your snake, she looks awesome:D. A shame That she got loose:please::tears:.

Some people just get off on others miss habs, last I checked no one was perfect. I've lost my snake once and it was scary (and that was for one day), so get over your self:taz:

Glove compartment maybe? It'll look for warmth. I know a friend that lost they're baby snake in the car. And found it in the engine.
