Exclamation In Thompson On October 26, 2004

I was given this picture by my sister in law so sorry for the poor quality.

Reports have it that the snake was run over on a road that houses the dog sleigh teams. It measured in at 14 feet with a girth of 8.5 inches. I have no clue as to who owned it or how it got out, or even how long it was out for.

This is in the Northern Community of Thompson, Manitoba...

Example

This is an example of what could happen if people in the herp community aren't careful and draw bad press. The image of all of us is marred by things like this.
