Here is an email my wifes mom sent me:
A guy in St. Louis was driving to work on Hwy 144 when he heard a 'pop'. He thought it sounded like a flat tire, though his ride wasn't affected. After pulling over, checking the tires and finding them intact he opened the hood to find a rather large obstruction in/on the motor.

That's some sick shit! (the Anaconda)...puking up a meal like that would've sustined it for a few months +. When you think about it in comparison, humans are a mere snack for these things. Especially unsuspecting children playing in the water.
As for the poor Boa that got cooked on that Acura engine block...poorthat totally sucks...it looked like a beautiful snake. Yeah....I'd hate to be the one to scrape that off my engine.

I fucking hate snakes. Besides alligators, snakes are about the only thing on the planet I'm afraid of. They just freak me out.
Years ago I was watching those sick ass movies, "The Faces Of Death". This 17 year old kid in Arizona, IIRC, opened the cabinet below the kitchen sink and was bit by a King Rattler.
When the emergency team got to the house there was something 30 of those fucks in there and biting this kid. Fucking horrible!! Those bloody snakes were massive too. I've never seen Rattle Snakes anywhere near that big before.
It looked like big black burns all over his body were the snakes bit him.
Also, I have these pics somewhere of a python or boa in the Philippines that took a kid and swallowed him. They showed the snake with the buldge then the kid still in the snake when they split it open.
Filthy creatures, IMO.Whataya Mean I Don't Support The System? I Go To Court When I Have To!

On the Philipines snake....I just said that...that's what these things do. If there's prey they can take, ONLY if they are hungry (they are NOT opportunistic BTW) they will...even if it IS a human.
It's nature....we're lower on the food chain than they arein SOME cases. I'm deathly afraid of being bitten by a shark, but they still amaze me to the point of awe and I'd still like to do the cage thing with them.

A big problem right now ia all the assholes who go buy these snakes when they still a managable size and end up turning em loose when they get really big and they get tired of taking care of em. its getting to be really bad in So. FL, I saw where they caught a 10 footer and put a homing beacon chip in it, and returned it to where they caught it. a week or so later they tracked it and found 10 other boas with him.
I'll catch a wild snake here every now and then, either a king. corn or rat snake and put em in a large aquarium I have set up as a snake habitat, they actually get to the point where I can handle em quite easily, and the kids get a kick out of feeding em live mice (sick little buggers) I return em to the wild in the fall making sure they have eaten enough for a week or so. but thats a completely different thing than introducing a non native species into the environment.I say the boy ain't right!
