SAN DIEGO -It could happen to you. According to the Associated Press, officials in San Diego are trying to determine how a 5 1/2-foot snake wound up in a toilet at an office building. Stephanie Lacsa told San Diego County authorities she noticed the water level in the toilet was higher than usual when she went to the second-floor restroom Tuesday. >When she plunged it, a snake popped up and flicked its tongue. She ran out, taped the door shut and called Animal Services. The department says an animal control officer found a Columbian rainbow boa on the floor. The snake was shedding and slightly underweight. It was taken to an animal care facility and bit a handler. If the owner doesn't show up by Friday, the snake will go to a rescue group. How it got in the toilet remains a mystery. |
