Greattttt, greattttt. Just the press that is needed. Let's hope that snake makes it home without incident.

Just what I was thinking. Unfortunately, Alaska is not a good place to be when you're a cold-blooded species.

Not sure how long it will last in 30~40 temps at night. :\

Yeah, I am hoping the snake will retreat home, where it is warm. We will probably know something soon.

Speaking of this, not to get off topic but was the Ocala Cobra ever found? The updates on that disappeared almost as quickly as they came.

Nope, they never found it, and its pretty much stopped being on our local news. We've gotten a few calls at the FD with people thinking they've seen it in their yard... and we're over an hour from Ocala :rolleyes:.

Yeaaaaah, if it ain't dead from exposure at this point, it's bear and coyote food. They haven't found that snake because something probably ate it.

If they do find it my bet is it is going to be curled up next to an engine of someone's car.

Great ending to a troubling story! We have to remain vigilant about securing our animals in their enclosures. :salute:

yay, happy ending!!! i like the last sentence: "He's not vicious or evil. He's just shy and hungry." :)

Yay Sam! Next time stay indoors buddy, that same trick wouldn't have worked in September lol.

I'm thinking it never actually left his home ... maybe it was in the attic or below the house ??

That's what I was as thinking; the tar could come from the eaves/soffit area.

LOL he never actually left! Good thing too

I know of a baby boa that went missing and turned up as a 5' Boa a couple of years later , in the same house ( bathroom towel cupboard) by new tenants !!!
