14-foot snake among creatures rounded up in Mardi Gras crackdown, officials say

[bonito]

No, 3 foot constrictors. Like...corn snakes, I guess. Rosy boas. Childrens pythons. Dangerous creatures all!

(I think the Rats of NIMH wrote the law, honestly).

I snapped a picture of a rosy boa as it constricted me to death. Terrifying. (You might have to click for the full image)

Seriously though, I don't understand the fuss. I mean, I understand concern about someone owning a nearly 15 foot retty or a Burmese that could end up being quite large, but... a ball python? My cats are more dangerous than a BP.
