"20, 30 miles per hour" ??? Wow, took me all of 30 seconds check this claim. The fastest snake in the world (black mamba) maxes out at 12 mph.

Also, I love the way this reptile "expert" presumes that the owner of the snake (and by implication most venomous snake owners) are complete and utter morons who don't understand the danger of owning a green mamba.


"All of the snakes were removed by animal control and destroyed"

Geez, was "destroying" the snakes really necessary. I wonder if PETA and HSUS will intervene given that these animals were unnecessarily put to death.
