Apparently authorities think animal rights activists have turned this snake loose. Hmmmmmm.

"Officials said they believed the snake was released by a group trying to raise awareness in making it illegal for people to own exotic animals."

LOL!! Sure, that'll teach'em!

Hmm. A few weeks ago a zebra was found grazing along an Atlanta freeway. I think it had been injured but is on the mend. I did not hear if the owner ever was found.

Just days later a zebra was found wandering around a school building but that was an intentional prank.

But now this article makes me wonder about the original one.

They should round up every PETA and AR freak within a radius of a hundred miles and make them search if they are so concerned about animals native to our country.

Am I the only one who is having real trouble following the rational here?

If true these deadly cobras were released to “make a statement”, and the “group” is named - they should be “targeted”.

Society has too long endured and suffered fools who NEED killin or incarceration for decades.

With poisonous snakes, you can never tell.

The venom is used to create anti-venom serums, and so is pretty valuable. Every once in awhile, the police will shut down an illegal venom milking operation, usually in one of the more rural parts of the country. This is northern Virginia we are talking about, so rural means you have an acre or two of land around your house.

If officials announced tomorrow that we had a breeding size population of monocled cobras (or some other exotic/dangerous species) loose in the county, it would come as no surprise to me.
