    OY!

    There was an MSN portal story one day on burms in the everglades featuring a picture of a BP. Knew I should have screenshot that one. You have to love the "same thing they are all snakes" mentality you're greeted with if you try to steer them towards accuracy.

    Wow....that's hysterical and pathetic all rolled into one. I mean, I don't expect your average Joe to be able to tell what species a snake is on sight...but if you're gonna report to the general public about something, by golly, take 30 seconds to do an Internet search and check your facts.

    LOL. Yep, you gotta love those hibernating anacondas. Well, at least the story chastised the owner and not the snake.

    Haha, seriously.

    I half expected something like "The huge, venomous, puppy-eating snake knocked over a lantern and set the house ablaze"

    But, I guess the guy did it.

    the lack of fact checking in our media is insane. i cant believe that this was published. it's sad because stories about snakes are not the only ones to be this far off from fact.

    so if thats what an anaconda looks like after hibernating....sheesh we've had it all wrong!


    Wonder what bears look like after a long winter....lets ask John Mcdonald to cover that story!
