Kig godt efter når du åbner en container

En britisk stenhugger gjorde et uhyggeligt fund, da han ville tømme en container han havde modtaget fra Indien. I containeren lå en ikke særlig stor, men meget aggressiv slange, der viste sig at være en af de farligste slanger i verden.

Slangen nåede dog ikke at bide nogen inden den blev indfanget og bragt til The South Essex Wildlife Hospital.

Slangen er så farlig, at den blev anbragt i en lukket kasse, i et lukket rum - hvorefter døren blev forseglet (se nederste foto i Twitter herunder), og udstyret med alarmer.

Slangen, der på dansk hedder tæppehugorm, har en meget dødelig gift, og personer der overlever et bid, mister ofte lemmer.

Det vides endnu ikke hvad der skal ske med slangen på længere sigt.

In addition to many British wildlife species coming in today we also had a call about a critter that is definitely not in the country it should have been. We had a call regarding a stowaway snake that had arrived in a shipping container from India. pic.twitter.com/8FFziZ7N61
