A family found on their houseboat, a snake hiding in a sock drawer!
The family were on their boat on Riviera Beach when they opened a sock drawer and found a yellow Eastern rat snake! The snake made its way onto the boat seeking shelter from severe weather, and the family called a friend to capture the snake, who ended up with a bite on his hand, but the injury was not serious. Eastern rat snakes are not venomous, and the snake was relocated.
Snakes have been known to seek shelter indoors in the past, with serpent surprises being discovered in locations including bathrooms, train cars, kitchens, hotel rooms and office drawers.
