It's frustrating hon. For me it's even sadder as these poor creatures can't even whine to get a stupid human's attention long enough to get fed or a bit of clean water. They just simply lay there, suffering in their silence while some idiot walks by eating a cheeseburger, drinking a coke and forgetting that the poor snake hasn't got even the basics of a decent captive life. Unfortunately humans are sometimes the stupidest, most inhumane creatures around.

I hope if you have to take this snake in you can rehab it and get it a good forever home with someone who actually treasures these wonderful creatures.
