Collected Constrictor

Waste safety managers are adding one more bullet point to their list of precautions after a six-foot Burmese python found its way into the hopper of a Rumpke collection truck operating in Anderson Township, Ohio. The driver was emptying a Dumpster behind a KFC restaurant when he noticed a large snake had tumbled out of it and onto his truck. The recycled reptile was fished out with a broom handle and whisked off by authorities to the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.

One is left to wonder whether the python prefers Original Recipe or Extra Crispy. He probably just had a wrap.
