A Garland, Texas neighborhood was on edge last week as a massive 15-foot reticulated python was slithering through the streets and reportedly even trapped a man on top of his truck.
Copperhead snakes are slithering through Louisiana and may smell like cucumbers. Learn where they hide and what to do if you come across one in your yard.
I was talking with a friend a while back about the things we were most afraid of happening to us in real life, and she told me she'd had nightmares about being bitten by a snake while sitting on the toilet.
At the time, we both laughed heartily at the thought, as horrendous as it is, because although it seemed terrifying, it also seemed unlikely to happen in real life. So, when I read this story, it was shocking.
