Python on the loose

Woman releases python at mobile-home park. Besides the fact she wanted to run it over with a lawn mower, I couldn't help but laugh at the people in this video.

Wow. Just wow. Please please please take animals to a shelter or something, don't release them. I hate stupid people. :mad:

some people make me sad. the ones that are not afraid of snakes but totaly irresponsible. Why didn't the lady just put it up for rehoming on CL or something. then the people in the trailer park scared of snakes. The 4 foot burmese python wouldn't have hurt that little boy

Would most animal shelters even try and rehome it??
i know they have a hard time getting food and stuff for their regular animals, let alone rats weekly for a Python...

it never says in the video what kind of "PYTHON" it is. lol yes the video preview image is a burm but they don't say, and judging from how ignorant everyone in the story seems to be about snakes i doubt the picture means anything. it was probably a ball, in which case that small child is in no danger. :rolleyes:

Wait, wait wait. Guns and knives ready? Really? Wow that is some serious stupidity. I'd actually prefer if that lawnmower ran over the woman, that way the world would be rid of an ignorant person.

They have so many people that could of taken that snake, I mean shelters or pet stores are an option. If all else failed people are always looking for snake on craigslist.

One major pet peeved of mine is when people are like "AWW DANGIT A PYTHON GET THE GUNZ AND KNIVEZZ!!!!" as if they're slaying dragons.
It's only 4 1/2 feet. That's not even big for a snake. We didn't need to go commando over burms in the everglades, why would we need to for this 4 foot sausage? As far as the kids go, it would take a snake well over 20 ft to actually consider a toddler a potential meal. And a fat 20 footer. Honestly, you guys know often that happens. Only retics average at ≤20 ft. And they're the slimjims of the pythons.

Howdy y'all! I reckon we should get the knives and guns since there is a dangerous 4.5 foot ball python on the loose. Ignorance is bliss I guess....

Some do, most don't. Still. Craigslist is very free, and there are many, many people (myself included) who respond to CL ads that go: "I'm gonna kill this python come get it for free!" I have responded to at least one. :rolleyes:

See, I don't mind trying to pickup snakes that people don't want. When they start asking for $50 and $100 that starts to add up, and it's them trying to make as much money as possible back. Then people use the excuse of the adoption fee to make sure it's going to a good home and that's complete bs. It's that they want to try to make money back, now $10 here or something then that's different. Not to mention that you have no idea about the health of the snake because the owners are normally incompetent and don't know how to properly take care of their snake.

ri-dic-u-lous... really. "Honey get me mah naaf I see that rodent eatin summagun roamin roun' the kiddy pool!". Seriously the condition of that lil "pool" is a bigger threat to that community than the python. Hell even if it WAS a burm, or retic I doubt it would make it through a single winter in Ohio. ppl make me so angry :rage:

Amen to that brotha

Oh my. That played like a video from the Onion. You know, the parody news site that makes up obviously fake news in a professional manner.

And sometimes Karma is a real rip.

In fact, that inspired me to create the domain name "FlamingSnakes.com".

Open to suggestions as to what to do with it.

:)

wait, someone mentioned The Onion?



The Onion already did it 3 years ago. And its hard-hitting....

That could work.

Think I'll scan here and other places for 'snake stories'.
