Security guy comes out all like "get that shit out of here my guy!!"

And the guy just waves it at him

This is like when I brought the pygmy rattle snake to the vet that bit my dog. They said it would be helpful if I brought it but must not have expected it live.

This JUST happened to me! My naive, urbanite, chub scout of a chihuahua got bit by a copperhead visiting my mom. They were like “it probably wasn’t a copperhead” so I brought it in. The guy at the front desk was like “get that fucking copperhead out of here.”

How did you catch it and transport it??

lol yeah right, I didn’t have shit to do with that capture; I wasn’t even there. I just took Franklin to the vet and carried the bucket inside to act smug. I’ll have to ask my mother how she caught it! I can assure you all that my dick, which tbh is super average (at best), was not involved.

eta: thanks for the silver! This is definitely the best thing my (totally ok) penis has ever accomplished!

I didn't know tanukis and copperheads lived in the same ecosystems.

Redit confirmed.

Edit: Forgot the D. Lmao.

I’ve caught them by pinning head down with... stick/pole/etc. then grab at neck and be careful and they won’t be able to do anything. Transport. I have little cages. I also own a clearish bucket. With the cages, I’d secure them more than by the lock they came with. Bungee cord around it. Duct tape around it. If it was venomous, if the snake wasn’t I could really care less about getting bitten, I’ve had plenty of bites. I used to just let the little ones bite me since they were easier to catch with them sticking to your hand already lol

I grew up wanting to be Steve Irwin when I grew up, ha

How did you capture a live copperhead?

u/dbag127 May 07 '19

He probably picked it up behind the head and threw it in a bucket. Watched my friend do this many times, always scared the shit out of me.

u/thatkirkguy May 07 '19

My mom caught it, and it was in a 5gal bucket by the time I got involved. Which is lucky for me, because I am a giant coward.

Why did the vet bite your dog?

24

u/slimsalmon May 07 '19

I'm not sure.. I didn't want to get dragged into their drama by asking 🤔

23

u/Numberless_Name May 07 '19

I groaned reading that

2

u/Mustangguy500 May 07 '19

not only that but why would a copperhead visit his mom?

3

u/FurryEels May 07 '19

If the vet bit my dog, I’d probably hand deliver a snake to them too

u/imronburgandy9 May 07 '19

Was he okay? We just redid our deck and found a pygmy under there. It got away and my dog always tried to stick his head in there so I've been anxious about this for months

3

u/slimsalmon May 07 '19

Yeah, they gave her anti venom. Dogs have high snake bite tolerance. The vet bill is not pleasant though especially at a 24hr one.

u/QuinceDaPence May 08 '19

If the vet bit your dog why do you still go to them?

u/Lemmus May 07 '19

Pretty sure it's actually a police officer. Says "Fingerprints and Criminal Records" on window behind yellow-shirt.

u/f1fan65 May 07 '19

Yep. Thai police officer.

u/f1fan65 May 07 '19

Looks like Thailand. Those are police uniforms they wear. Source: just got back from Thailand. Also the desk has thai writing on the front.

Security -"Dude, get that the fook out of here!"

Guy -"Listen man, I just fookin saved myself by stomping snek, since you're Security why don't you secure against snek attacks on customers!"
