Looks like he had it coming. Policies are in place for a reason. Mess with the bull and get the horns, or in this case snake and fangs.

Im just curious why zoo's hire people who dont really know what they are doing to handle powerful creatures.

Economics....the more educated a person is [in theory anyway] the more they expect to be paid for the same job.

Yes, I guess a more appropriate statement would be "I wish we lived in an idealistic world."

I hate misleading headlines. The snake didn't "eat" the boy....and 3 meters? That's not even 9 feet! Something's amiss here.

It is a little off, but the site seems legit.

Then again the article about a burmese python ( actually a BCI ) in Muskegan just a few days ago was complete nonsense.
