An anaconda snake is loose in New Jersey's Lake Hopatcong, and a local reptile expert said Friday he's breaking his silence after animal control told him to keep quiet about the dangerous reptile. "I've known it was an anaconda since last week, but I was told by animal control and state police not to say anything," Gerald Andrejcak, who works for Common Sense for Animals, told The New Jersey Herald. "Officials were afraid that if it came out that the snake was an anaconda it would cause mass hysteria. It needed to come out, it is a public safety issue."

Some sleezeball, geek, snake keeper finally figured out it was too expensive to feed.

People who keep snakes as pets need some serious mental evaluation.

Or the snake will take care to find a warm winter home with tasty humans paying the heating bills.

Better off to keep a native snake. I used to keep garter snakes and had several of them for several years.

Keeping an anaconda as a pet is simply beyond insanity. On par with keeping a grizzly bear or a Great White shark as a pet.

Officials were afraid that if it came out that the snake was an anaconda it would cause mass hysteria.

Such official policy does not belong in a free republic. And what would the "mass hysteria" be? Keeping children out of the lake, sounds like a good idea to me.

I wonder if the snake and Christie will try to eat each other, to their mutual detriment?

Good anaconda snake control: 20 gauge with 7.5 shot. Ooops, I see it is New Jersey. Well, consider throwing stones at it.
