The arp was actually smuggled into NB as a hatchling then surrendered to the SPCA. It was then rehomed to Jean Claude because he had a zoo permit. He allowed his permit to lapse but never got rid of his prohibited animals.

This is why I think we haven't heard much more about this. The province gave him the snake and failed to remove it from him when his permits expired. They may be held responsible for the deaths as they had on record that they gave him the snake. I would bet the mom has or will get paid to sign a non disclosure contract to keep this negligence out of the news.
sad regardless and another case of one person wrecking it for the rest of us.

No doubts, if an illegally kept corn escaped and strangled 2 children the entire hobby would be in jeopardy! Be responsible!
