>>Yeah that is a racer for sure!! So much for finding a home for a black rat. That would have been simple by comparission. I am amazed that someone buying wood was able to catch it.

Yeah well, it will be a good training tool for my class at animal control. Lets see what topics it can hit.

1: ID is important - Cindy is so used to seeing ball pythons here she cant ID much at all.
2: How not to get bit. If you can remove this snake from the cage, you get a cookie.
3: How to handle an aggressive snake (actually I am really thinking of using this bad boy for my class because well it cant bite through my gloves).
4: Creative swearing 101
5: The need to improve lighting in the reptile room of Animal control. Looked black rat there, got it home and had other ideas.

I do need to rename him something more, ummm, friendly. Just not quite sure what I plan to do with him at this point, but I am impressed that they managed to pull him from a wood pile and I am further impressed that they didnt get bit. He did have a BIG orange caution tag on his cage at animal control that they reserve for the bite case dogs.
