Yahoo.ca: RICHMOND, B.C. – A slithering surprise was discovered in a package mailed from China at a Canada Post distribution centre in British Columbia last week.
The B.C. Conservation Officer Service said three venomous mountain pit vipers were inside a package destined for Manitoba.
Insp. Murray Smith said the service received a call from the Richmond mail branch reporting the discovery of live snakes.
Two of the snakes were already dead, while the third had escaped its container and was found loose in a larger box.
The surviving snake was successfully caught and is being handled by specialists.
Deputy Chief Chris Doyle said the vipers are dangerous and no antivenin exists for the species in Canada. more
I fucking hate snakes. Hate them.
If I’d been there, there would have been no survivors.
The surviving viper has been named Trudeau.
I see a great purse and belt in that photo.
Was that MF’n mail on my MF’n PLANE???!!!
we’ve got some venomous illegals in my neighborhood too…
“I fucking hate snakes. Hate them.”
There’s gold in them thar words.
Said the pest control guy.
You ain’t the only one who hates snakes. Spiders too!
i’m detecting some snakeophobia here. This snake is here to do the jobs Canadian snakes won’t do.
The Muzzies and Trudeau are way more of a problem in Canada that a single pit viper from China. FUK ISLAM!
Somebody make the Chinese aware that most of us in the Western World take our Gall Bladder problems to the doctor.
I know nothing satisfies like fresh, powdered snake penis, but some things must be given over to enjoy the peace of Civilization.
I would think a snake would get pissed off if you tried to powder his penis. How big is a snake penis anyway? Enquiring minds want to know. And how many snakes do you have to kill before you get anything but the smallest dose of powdered snake penis for medicinal purposes?
Pretty snake!
Someone head out to the local zoo and borrow Rikki Tikki Tavi!
