Latest report it’s an old bite.
Suspected overdose.
Snakes had nothing to do with his death.

Was the dead guy’s name James Bond?

I used to have a friend who kept a menagerie of venomous snakes at his house. The most agressive one was his King Cobra. That guy got loose in the back yard once.

He also kept some wallabies in the house.

Many years ago I went to Shippensburg college to buy a Dumerils Boa from the biology teacher.
His animals were living in wretched conditions and I examined the Dum whilst a 4 foot alligator was roaming loose around my feet in that cruddy little room.
I bought her and brought her home to get her out of that hell.
I named her Dixie.
She was surprisingly sweet considering the horror she’d endured.

People are dragging him for having snakes in the house with a three year old. I’d say drugs are worse...and a lot more common.

Was he vaccinated? Poisonous snake handlers don’t just die suddenly at 23.

—”I used to have a friend who kept a menagerie of venomous snakes at his house. “

A friend of my brother kept venomous snakes and his dream was to own a King Cobra.

That was years ago and I have avoided passing near his house and avoided the entire neighborhood forever.

OD.
Maybe jabbed too as if it mattered with an OD.

Just an idiot.

Since the snakes were obviously innocent I hope they don’t pay for his stupidity.

It sounds like there was a good facility to care for the venomous ones. Probably temporary. If they’re legal, that represents a pretty big hunk of change. I hope they don’t play games and hit him with fees that cause him to lose them.

Venomous snakes are legal in PA.
I hope they go to a nice zoo or something.
They did nothing wrong.

Permits required? Penalties for not having them? There are ways that government can leverage them away from the owner. if they so desire.

Nope, no permits.
Same as guns.
Ponder that.
PA is a free state...for now.

Sounds like Oregon, pre-Measure 114. I’d look for the PA gun grabbers (with out-of-State money) to attempt the same thing by initiative petition. 114 is still stymied by the courts.
