Ick!

what is this like the 4th cobra loose in 5/6 yrs, and i think only one accounted for

 

[smokeythecat]

Time to call animal control and wait an hour before they get there? How about a 10 second wait to unload the 12 gauge on it.

All they need is a mongoose. Gary

If you're the type of person that can lose a snake, then you don't need a snake!!

Hopefully they can't survive the winter.

 

[smokeythecat]

That's what I was thinking but winter is a long way off. PLUS it possibly could get into someone's home. Looks like it just ate, so may just hang out in the shade for a few days. Then eat someone's dog or such.

whoa, the snake is at the same house it was spotted @ yesterday, time to get out

 

[newnan man]

That happened here in Florida a few years back. Took weeks to capture and I think it showed up in a woman's garage around her washing machine.

[smokeythecat]

I hope he gets a huge bill and a court order to not have these things around.

 

[cw0909]

poor snake has to suffer because he was owned by a jerk. That guy needs to have all his snakes removed and returned to their native lands and restricted from getting more snakes.
