As others have posted, sounds like the snake still needs to be rescued. I agree it's in a better situation now then when the fire dept(?) found it. Now in some sort of enclosure, hopefully getting heat and water. Fortunately snakes don't need to eat often so as long as warm and has water, it can "survive" many months without food, maybe even up to a year depending on it's current condition and fat stores.





I know I sound antagonistic, don't mean to just concerned the snake went from the fire back into the frying pan batter off but still not "safe"



Would the shelter try to feed a chocolate to a dog? Has lots of nutrients! I think not since chocolate is poisonous to dogs! They would feed the dog some sort of "dog food"!!
