A Maple Ridge veterinarian will soon be looking for new homes for two large snakes.
Dr. Adrian Walton was recently sent a 4.5 ft. long ball python, Basil, who comes from the Interior. The BC SPCA branch in Penticton was unable to adopt the animal after a few weeks. With Walton’s contacts in the exotic pet world through Dewdney Animal Hospital, they were hopeful he would have more luck in finding the reptile a good home.
When Basil arrived, Walton already had an eight-foot red tailed boa constructor in his care.
