Glawe said the Ball Python snake, named Bart, was too big to fit all the way through her lobe, and she was unable to extract it on her own. Glawe further explained that she wears gages in her earlobes but had taken them out.
...
A friend informed concerned commenters that doctors at Portland Adventist Hospital made a slight cut in Glawes ear and used Vaseline while further stretching the lobe with a plastic tool so that the snake could wiggle out. Glawe told another commenter that her ear was numbed before the procedure and that the experience hurt a little, but Bart was unharmed.

At a previous home, I often had to run a gauntlet of deer to get to work. I hit one, or it hit me, on 2 separate occasions. My best friend’s mother extracted a promise that next time I load up the carcass in my pickup & bring the venison to her.
Luckily I moved away before having to test her temper at being wakened at dark-thirty to strip a fresh carcass - I worked 3rd shift then. That tiny little Venezuelan lady had a notoriously evil streak for untimely wake-ups. Could throw a bedroom slipper accurately & hard enough to leave marks. I sure do miss her.

Oh, come on now.
How *often* could this possibly happen?

FWIW, after she barraged every reptile group on earth with her “mishap”, the attention whore is currently getting more “attention” than she ever wanted.
No one is buying it, now and they’re not being at all kind, in their replies.
