You truly never know what headline you’ll read next. A Canadian woman has been caught at Schiphol trying to smuggle a ball python onto a plane.
Thankfully, before Schiphol passengers could experience a real life version of “Snakes on a plane”, the woman was caught.
According to the Netherlands Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority (NVWA), the snake was discovered during a safety check, RTL Nieuws reports.
How did she attempt to hide the animal? By stuffing it into her bra… Unfortunately for her, it seems that the cupsize wasn’t enough to disguise a living snake.
Claims to have found it at Amsterdam hotel
The woman apparently told the BOAs that she found the python at her Amsterdam hotel, however, understandably, the NVWA are sceptical of this.
That being said, the NVWA took to social media to clarify that “you are not allowed to simply take protected animals with you on a trip. Not even if you found them on the street.” Especially not if said animal is a python and you’re about to board a plane, if you ask us.
They also report that the snake is now in an animal shelter.
Figuring out punishment
What about the inventive smuggler? While this is a bit of a unique case, the NVWA tells RTL Nieuws that “attempting to smuggle a protected animal will likely not go unpunished.”
A report has been filed to the Public Prosecution Service. They will then determine whether the woman receives a fine.

Must have been a baby python.
TTIUWP
Hey, is that a python in yer bra or are ya just happy to see me?
Baby Snakes
Go to Florida. They would probably give you a tow sack full of pythons just to get rid of them.
Since it was a python she was lucky it didn’t put a strangle hold on one of her boobs.
Been there, done that.
So many crazy people and not enough places to keep them.
How do we know it didn’t?
“Since it was a python she was lucky it didn’t put a strangle hold on one of her boobs”
.
She’s fotunate authorities got to put the “pinch” on her first.
At least she didn’t need batteries.
LOL
You win the thread!
She musta run out of the wired uplifting bra options.
Canadian woman?
At least it wasn’t a Polar Bear.
