New retic in to Rusty Reptiles
was abandond in early January, and was just found yesturday.
It is approximatly 9 feet and weighs in at a whopping 8 lbs.
poor thing was locked in a twenty gallon aquarium, with no water or food for that above period of time.
Doing good today, besides being underweight, it is surprisingly ok. seems to already be cheering up with a nice shed overnight, and a few strikes at the walls of it's new enclosure. I have a feeling it must enjoy stretching out.
I will post pictures shortly.
Sincerely
Rusty

Rusty - you are the greatest! I think it's best that I focus on how awesome it is that you exist to take these poor creatures in .. then the fact that we need people like you because so many people abandon pets.... because if I focused on these people that abandon animals.... well.. someone could get hurt.

Wow. I don't even know what to say to that. It's horrible that people do that to any animals. Best of luck to you with it, Rusty. Keep up the outstanding work your doing.

I just don't understand how a person could treat an animal that way. It just makes no sense. At the very least they could drop it off at the zoo or animal control who would call in a reptile rescue, and it wouldn't have to suffer for so long. I'd like to see the people stuffed in a tiny tank without food or water that long! I am sure that it will do fine in your capable hands, though, Rusty. Thanks for doing what you do.

9 feet, and only 8 lbs. poor thing! Still waiting on those pictures Rusty, and much respect to you for the work you do rescuing animals. I used to think it would be cool to rescue herps etc... cuz then you would always have some and you could keep the ones you wanted. Fact of the matter is though that it must be quite stressful and hurt a bit since you have to frequently see them come in suffering from long periods of abuse or neglect. Good luck to you and the new rescue.

Hi all, thanks for the support,
I still don't have any dang pictures, s / he has already come out for her daily check, and I don't want to stress her just to take pictures of her, so I promise to snap some over the next couple of days.
Thanks again
Rusty
