A female passenger en route to Barbados was stopped from boarding the plane at Miami International Airport ,after TSA agents found a python hidden in her computer hard drive!
The Miami Herald reports that the officials found the snake stuffed in a nylon stocking and placed in the external hard drive which was in the woman's carry on luggage.
Come to think of it - that method of smuggling doesn't sound quite as amazing as the incident in 2012 . That year a woman tried to board a plane with a snake hidden in her bra.!
Hard to believe that these reptiles are probably being sold for pets. Hard to imagine people actually have them as pets.
What animal would you never want as a pet?

Snakes are out the question for sure! No skunks for me.

@db20747 Skunks don't make popular pets.

@Kandae11 the film involved just that - the title pretty well explains the entire plot

That is just plain crazy
I'm happy with a dog or cat. Not a fan of anything exotic

At the airport they ask people to show the laptops. I know the customs officer must have been surprised. The lady was taking a snake in her computers hard drive so that was strange. In 2012 a lady has a snake hidden in her bra. Now that one was a lot more unusual. I would never want to get a pet snake.

I would never want a snake as a pat and not even a furry spider. I hate snakes.

in her bra? maybe that was a baby snake, or if full-grown, maybe she wore the extra very big brassiere? hahaha.

@Kandae11 I agree. I don't understand how do they come up with such ideas

I hope that the woman was given a jail sentence. If I had been a passenger near her and it got out not only would I have killed the snake I would have killed her too! Totally selfish and irresponsible. I think my friend @DianneN would help me kill that stupid woman!

It is creepy and terrifying. I can't imagine how people can do such things like smuggling a snake for pet.
