Re: Need some perspective (gore)
Makes you wonder, If snakes expressed audible emotion (ie whimpered or cried) would this have ever gone this far?

That's...wow. It still would have gone on. I can almost guarantee it. Human beings are the most cruel, ruthless, apathetic creatures out there. Snakes don't toy with their food. They don't trophy it up on their hide box. They eat to survive. People just don't give a crud about them. They're scared. They're disgusted. They think it's gross that snakes have to kill to survive. They don't realize that as humans, we do too. We just have the luxury of buying it prepacked at a grocery store. I'm ranting. I'm sorry. I'll stop. I'm just so...infuriated.
Re: Need some perspective (gore)
What the hell!!!! :rage::mad: For how extensive those wounds are, that rat had to have been in there for DAYS!! Maybe even a couple weeks! No one looked in on it at ANY time?! That's absurd! Not only does this girl need to be located so the snake could be saved from her "rescuing," but the stupid pet store needs to be shutdown!
Is there any update on this?? Have you been able to get AC over to the address and see if that's really the girl's location?
Re: Need some perspective (gore)
that's just unbelievably horrible. how can someone think they are helping by keeping this poor creature around for a photo shoot?
Re: Need some perspective (gore)
That is 100% sad and BEYOND ridiculous. That person would be better off euthanizing it themselves... freezer, shovel... whatever, that snake will not recover from an injury like that and the fact that the person thinks they're "rescuing" that poor snake makes me sick.
Also that rat or whatever did that to the snake had to have been in there for a LONG LONG LONG LONG LONG time, more than a week I'm guessing.
I saw someone here post that this is in Michigan? I wanna know where the snake came from and go pay a visit to the operation they run because from what that picture tells me they have no right to be selling or keeping ANY animals.
Re: Need some perspective (gore)
That snake would have been better off in the freezer, in my opinion.
Re: Need some perspective (gore)
One of the many reasons I lose patience with self appointed "rescuers" of animals that should be put down.
"Save" an animal, out of our own selfishness, and then leave it to suffer because we lack the resources to care for it.
What forum is this happening on... I think I am not the only person that would like to know.

I didn't want to tell everyone because it would initiate a flood of anger and emotion in her direction, and a mix of good and bad communications that might or might not help - but now she's got some dude in there defending her actions and advising her to continue what she's doing - so go for it.

I don't care what anyone does. Just get this animal to the hospital (or crush its head).
