Animal Fix: Two Guys and a Snake - Igou Gap Rd., Chattanooga
I know that we have plenty of snakes slithering around in the TN Valley but I had to pull over and see what they had as people honked their horns and yelled questions from their cars like: "...where did you find that?..." and "...is it dead?..." So, I decided to find out and tell you. Take a listen to what they had to say...CLICK HERE. And...Yes, it was very dead...in case you were wondering too!
Michael Hayes (left) and Robbie Stamlick (right) were headed towards home on Igou Gap Rd. Not necessarily an event to blog about. But it was what they were carrying that caught the eye of this roaming Animal Fix blogger.
Answer to Snake location
The two guys who found the snake said that they picked it up off of the side of the road about 100 yards away from the four-way blinking red light where Jenkins and Igou Gap intersect going towards Gunbarrel Rd.

Okay, the snake is more than likely a Cottonmouth. But, the markings on it look exacally like a Bushmaster, which are known to be imported here from South America. They are 10x more dangerous than any cottonmouth. This is a concern. Take my advice...have the snake checked out. If it is a Bushmaster, it is a juvinille, meaning it is probably not alone.
