Eight Foot Boa Found at Beach Today
This was the gist of the ticker that caught my eye on tv during WPDEs news today. Occasionally alligators make their way into the ocean, which of course makes the news so I wasn't completely surprised. Scientists hypothesize they do this to shake off the barnacles, while others think it's to find food. So this ticker today was no surprise, also taking into consideration that a lot of people get pets for their children to enjoy during vacation. Then they let them go, presumably to "thrive" in the wild, though thriving is usually not what happens. There's no end to the unusual but logical reasons a Boa Constrictor would be found on a SC beach. Turns out however, that I missed "Ford," which followed "Beach," but making this headline even more intriguing. Even more interesting was that the snake was identified as a rare Albino Boa from South America, according to WPDE. Curious for the details, I visited the WPDE website for the full story and
