"A snake enthusiast has been banned from taking his pet boa constrictor on the bus."

"Mr Sullivan said the snake had its fangs removed and so was not dangerous although he added that it did ‘strike out from time to time’ when provoked."

Either Mr. Sullivan is a complete idiot, or the reporter is...or both, I suppose... Mr. Sullivan's boa constritor had fangs..and they were removed...maybe Mr. Sullivan's vet was an idiot too...

Whatever happened to fact checking? Why is it so many "news" articles and reports leave stupid crap like this in their content. I'd expect high school newspaper reporters to do a better job.

Frustrating...
