DANVILLE, Pa – A couple who took their nearly 5-foot boa constrictor for a swim in a Pennsylvania river say the pet slipped away and they're concerned about its welfare.
The Bloomsburg Press Enterprise reported Thursday that Kolby and Zachary Latranyi had been swimming with the snake named Leyla last weekend in the Susquehanna River. The Latranyis say the red-tailed boa was shedding, so the swim was designed to help it remove material from its scales.

Maybe. There are people out there idiotic enough to name their daughter “Kolby.”
A 5’ Boa is a sub-adult who would typically only be eating medium rats at that age/size.
They get long before they get big.
My 8 footers only eat large rats and those, only once a month.
I have 5’ Hog Islands who only eat small rats as their particular locality grows slowly and stays smaller than others.
Two homos confirmed:
“Since Sunday, Zachary and his husband Kolby Latranyi “

You can see why the snake wanted to escape.
Yup.
Given that bit of insight, it probably understandably ran away.
And I was right.
At one year, it’s barely beyond a baby.
Maybe they’ll adopt a human baby next time.
What could possibly go wrong?
They can’t, as far as is known, gerbil with a baby.
Maybe.
One can’t tell anymore with that crowd.
Naw, come on. There no way to say anything about amphibians. Right?
Yup.
Those snake huggers tend to be severely intellectually impaired.
Room temp IQs.
Probably think Shakespeare is just a good fishin’ pole.
*gag*
Well if there are missing Chihuahuas downstream,
...LOL
Damn sneaky amphibians.
Creeping around, living a life between two worlds.
Can’t trust them, either.
Unfortunately we have that problem here in flirida
How much you want to bet that the snake is dead, they know it, and concocted a tale to explain its “vanishing”?
A year old Boa is only about as big around as a broom handle and eats either small rat pups or large mice.
Don’t be daft.
Why would they bother going to such inane extremes to cover up a dead pet snake?
Unless there was someone to whom they needed to explain it, and I missed that.
I need to go re-read the article.
:\
If they are homos, my guess is the snake was let go on purpose just to get attention.
If these two nit wits vote, I can guarantee which party they follow.
Damn.
Wish I could find her.
She’s a Hypo and if actually female, worth a couple hundred bucks.
To skate on animal abuse charges, especially if they were “gerbiling” with the snake.
Plus, they’re homos, a group not known for rational sane decisions.
