A reptile expert who was dispatched after receiving a request for help from an American family encountered a sight for the first time in his life.
According to foreign media such as NBC in the United States on the 15th local time, Al Wolf, the representative of a reptile relief organization in Sonoma County, California, recently received a report from a resident saying "there seems to be a snake in the house."
Upon arriving at the scene, Mr. Wolff heard the complaints of residents, "I see snakes every time I enter and exit the house. It seems that there are several animals living under the floor," and started a full-scale search.
Knowing that snakes are looking for a warm place to spend the winter from October when the weather gets colder, he decided to focus on the cracks under the house.
Mr. Wolf bowed his head and went into the crevice under the floor.
In fact, there were large and small snakes circling inside.
The North Pacific Rattlesnake was the only known venomous snake native to northern California.
But the more I looked under the floor, the more snakes constantly popped out.
After about four hours, Mr. Wolfe pulled out 81 snakes from under the house.
After visiting the same house two more times, Wolf found 11 more rattlesnakes, a total of 92.
Mr. Wolff said he had visited countless homes in his 32-year career with reptile relief organizations, but it was the first time he had found so many snakes at once.
He explained the reason, "Among the rattlesnakes found, there were exceptionally many females. Also, the house was originally built on a rocky ground, so it was an environment suitable for snakes to live in," he explained.
It is reported that the owner of the house did not disclose his name and address, saying, "I do not want my neighbors to suffer the same fears as me."
This is a 'news pick'.
