Workman says the snake's owner has the proper permit to keep it as a pet and officials say the owner is an experienced snake handler.

No one said anything about keeping the snake though.

BORN FREE

Male or female?

Time to start building a supply of anti-venom.

“You can’t bring that in here!”

“It’s just my Service Cobra, Fluffy.”

“You’re insane!”

“Yes I am. Fluffy helps keep me calm.”

That was the first question that came to mind when I read this.

people in Florida need to take driving lessons from Texans.

We had some kind of Cobra get loose and it did not make it a quarter mile before someone drove over it and killed it.

I grew up on the edge of Jackson MS near Yudan about a decade earlier in an area now ghetto which spawned David Banner....gangsta rap southern black style

We were on edge of rural with creeks and swamps and deep woods

Full of water moccasins and southern diamondbacks ....big fat enormous headed pit vipers the latter

Folks got bit

We had neighbors with 4 teen boys who caught them and kept a dozen in a terrarium type tank

They would handle the biggest rattler a bit especially if wasn’t hungry

Nobody messed with the cottonmouths....they would strike a stick like nothing

I think rattlers could sense human arm?

We’d all catch rodents to watch them feed

One rattler was so big he had his own tank

He got out one day and momma laid down the law

They took the snakes out on a nearby farm and let them all go

I inherited some decent sized corn snakes....they lived to bite me
