| An interesting story!
It will be interesting to see if it is a Venomoid Snake, perhaps someone from the Aquarium could check it out!
Thanks for posting the story |

well, their professional statement, that venomoids should have a general digestive problem does not lead me to high expectations about "checking out" anything.... _________________ Cobras - breathtaking beauties!

| Anyway such stories lead to a general prohibition of venomous snakes all over Austria in the near future, I'm sure. Very sad ... maybe I should think about getting some hots as now it is still allowed in Upper Austria ... |
