Snake showed up again, this time in back yard. My housemate wanted to

This time Animal Control came promptly and caged it. Officer told me
it was an Albino Corn Snake.


Well, I hope they don't kill it. They're too pretty and besides,
they're valuable - a nice healthy albino (amelanistic) corn snake can
fetch as much as $150.

On another note, please don't kill snakes out of turn. They don't do
any harm to you, and keep rodents in check.

It's probably dead already. Animal control is supposed to be people
who help animals, but many times they are just sadistic assholes. At
least here in my neck of the woods they are.
