Huge snake caught by snake handlers in Florida

Rhett and Taylor Stanberry who are employed by a pest control service online in Florida answered a call from a concerned resident in Naples Florida on Monday to capture a 9 foot albino boa constrictor snake who was in the backyard of the home of the resident who made the call for the pest control employees to remove from the premises.
After the couple were able to large snake who is 9 feet and five inches in length that weighs 52.6 pounds after they measured the snake, they believe that the snake must have belonged to a family lost their pet when Hurricane Ian came to Florida in late September 2022.
The snake will be well guarded in their place of business since it is unlikely that the former owners of the snake will be asking them to find the whereabouts of their former pet.

You know it is beyond me why anyone wants to keep any kind of snake..just me. But this one is too big entirely.

That is what I am wondering why would anyone want to own a huge snake?

@Deepizzaguy I don't know what the attraction to them is.

@RebeccasFarm I have no idea why anyone would want to have a snake for a pet either. I can understand a goat or hamster but not a snake.

The same with me to stay away from any snake since I do not know if they are poisonous or not.

The sight of a large snake is very scary.

That is a good question since snakes like the boa constrictor are known for killing their owners.

I'm glad that they picked up the snake and it will not be going back into the wild.

I am in agreement with you since the snake will be in good hands.

The same with me since the sight of a huge or small snake is scary to look at.
