The animals included snakes, geckos, frogs, salamanders and a baby crocodile.

"Woman finds python in hotel toilet"

Clearly not enough fiber and too many starches in her diet. I know it takes at least three good flushes to get rid of one of them things.

And I thought the Dutch were such warm, fuzzy people who like to live and let live.
