Interesting find...

I was walking to school today, and my friend's mom shouts at us that there's a big dead snake in the road. I think, okay, I'll go see what kind it was, it's probably just a black rat.

I walk closer, and I get upset because it has an interesting pattern, light and the only thing I think it could be is a huge copperhead.

It's a BCI. Light tan, beautiful abberant markings, and a reddish-orange tail. 4-5 feet, and thicker than my arm. Couldn't tell you about the head, by the time I could get a good look at it, there wasn't one. I think I wasn't more than half an hour too late.

I'm so pissed off at whoever owned that... they let it go, probably because it bit or because it got too big... I would have taken it in, for a while at least, my parents would have let me... but instead of giving it a chance, they just release it. Poor thing... Yes, sure, they live in Colombia, but in South America, not Maryland...

I hate some people...

Sorry, I just felt I had to share with some people who might understand.
