Snake!

[Pullersboy]

People call the police for the strangest things. I'd have never thought to dial 911 because there's a snake on my porch. But, that's how the world works.

This little fella, about a 4 1/2 foot rat snake, was camping out on someone's porch. They call police and said the snake is "...not letting complainant and his kids enter their residence."

And he calls himself a man.....SMH. I understand if you have a fear of snakes, but C'mom man! You couldn't at least get the snake to just move along?

Little guy had a bit of an attitude when I grabbed him to put him in a pillow case to find him a new home out by a local gas well pad. Of course, I'm sure he was a little agitated that the complaint had emptied more than one whole can of Raid on the little fella. So, I asked them for a garden hose and a pillowhole case. I sat there hosing the snake off for a couple minutes prior to capture. Hopefully I was able to get most of the Raid off.

My daughter(911 Dispatcher)took a call for a kangaroo hopping down the street.
....and she takes snake calls a couple times a month.

The moron sprayed a snake with a can of Raid? Should have written him a ticket for being a wuss!

My wife found one about that size in a Christmas wreath hanging on the front door once... It didn't end well for the snake, the wreath or me... I messed up and scolded her for killing a "good" snake... I won't be guilty of that again... I'd give anything for pics, but in the heat of battle when I got home from work that day and discovered the carnage on the front porch, I never even thought about pics once I was drawn into the freakus...

That's about how half of the dudes on here would react lol

It's crazy how good chicken snakes are at climbing.

I've brought home pythons, iguanas, coons and chickens from calls for service. Even seen calls for A bee, one bee.

Or for using an aerosol can in a manner other than directed.


Good thing the so called man didn't think to grab a lighter after dousing it

Using a flame thrower would have been more manly

remember a call similar to that some 20 years ago I was parked at school zone in a residential area when this young attractive lady on a bike went by and smiled as she passed I smiled back as she rode by, I look in my rear view mirror and much to my surprise she is turning around and pulling up to my patrol car , I said hello is there anything I can help you with and she said yes I have something i'd like to show you at my house, {you leo's know we cant make this stuff up}, I said ok and followed her to her home she open the garage and said I think there's a snake under my car so I lean over and by the front tire is a 3ft rattler all coiled up, I think to myself poor damsel in distress I will slay this dragon for ye. so I ask her for a broom and bag of some kind she says ok goes inside and out comes her husband?????????????? he says thank God you're here I was about to call the fire dept or police. gimme the broom I swept it out from under the car and yankee bob ran inside, she came back out and held the bag while I put the snake in the bag , said goodbye to the nice lady and went to release the snake.
