Snake in the Truck
I'm driving over to a re-inspection this morning and see what looks to be a long dark rope along the side of the highway. As I get closer I can see it moving and immediately know it's a snake, a large, unhappy one at that.
I lockup the brakes and get pulled over. I jump out and think it doesn't look like the venomous type, so I go ahead pick him up like Steve Irwin always did. Different from Steve, I hate snakes with a passion but didn't want to see the thing all over the road in a bloody mess.
Just as I got him off the ground this black woman drives up and stops and screams "Put that down you crazy bastard!!"
I figure I'll just drive down the road aways and find a nice grassy clearing. So I jump into my truck and that's when things got interesting to say the least! So I'm now holding the snake head in one hand and trying to shift, signal, and steer while the rest of this little monster is using his 5ft body to give me a beating of reptilian ass-kickin.
Finally I get pulled over and let him loose, he was kind enough to pose for a few pictures before slipping away.
BTW can anyone tell what kind of snake it is? Thought it might be a rat snake.
