Roxanna Jones of Ironton, Missouri was cleaning a house when what to her wondering eyes should appear - a discarded snake skin.
Clever FaithfulReaders will know immediately that this was no ordinary snake skin. This little treasure was twelve feet in length.
Roxanna took the snake skin to a sixth grade teacher, Julie Bales.
After looking at the coloration, the pattern on it and the size, I figure it belonged to a Burmese Python, Bales said (obviously a Faithful Reader herself...).
Here is my favorite quote from the report:
According to an expert at the Missouri Department of Conservation, the snake is not indigenous to the Heartland.
Whew! Thanks for that newsflash, Department of Conservation!
