Finding the skin of a giant snake can be frustrating, especially when the scary snake gets lost in the action.
According to the Southwest News Service (SWNS), this is exactly what happened to the one-year-old girl when she found boa constrictor skin larger than her own body while hanging out with her grandfather. The 5-foot skin is said to be imperfect, meaning the snake could be much larger.
A 7-year-old girl found the shed skin of a boa constrictor bigger than her while going for a walk with her grandfather.

“I couldn’t believe it when they brought my eyes home,” Debra Druvet, the girl’s grandmother, told SWNS. “It almost goes from floor to ceiling. They thought it was just plastic in the debris under the bridge, but they looked closely and it was the skin of this giant snake. “
According to the grandparents, no one knows where the snake may have been cut after shedding its skin in its Headington, Oxford, neighborhood.
He said, “I was really worried and there was an image of a huge snake roaming in someone’s garden.”

“He won’t eat your cat,” Colin Stevens, head of education at the World Zoo Crocodile in Oxfordshire, told SWNS. You don’t want it to bite you, but it will just give you a nasty wound. Most of these reptiles are not doing very well in the wilds of England. Warming up for them is definitely too cold unless they can find somewhere cozy or safe. “
