I can see keeping smaller non-venomous snakes but an 18 foot constrictor? I hope there wasn't any children in the household.

Macungie is about 15 minutes from me. Yes, his own snake strangled him and now he's dead. :sadangel:

Terrible but when you have exotic animals as a pet, this could happen. :willy:

An African rock python killed two boys in Campbellton, New Brunswick, Canada, on August 5, 2013. The boys, Noah Barthe, 4, and Connor Barthe, 6, were sleeping in an apartment above their friend's father's pet store. The python – which had been in a specially made enclosure in the apartment – had escaped, crawled through an air duct, and fallen through a ceiling tile above where the boys were sleeping. Following the incident, the python was euthanized. The python's owner was charged with criminal negligence for not preventing the deaths, but was found not guilty in a jury trial in November 2016.
