I'm the new "badass" of my building. We're 6 units and half the building is empty. My neighbor texted me in a panic because there was a snake in the yard. He's terrified of them. I expected a garter snake or something, instead this thing was about 5ft long. Poor thing was probably lost so I grabbed snakeo by his middle, used my other hand to support his "upper body", and I moved him into the big garden. If I didn't go to summer camp I don't know if I could wrangle a large snake :) My neighbor is mad I didn't just kill it (!) but he's happy that he doesn't have to look at it anymore.

OP: it wasn't venomous, and it probably kills mice and rats. The enemy of my enemy is my friend! [ Reply | More

OP: Jersey City. I'm in a small neighborhood (not downtown), we don't have huge buildings, and there's a lot of green space. We get deer too and, very rarely, foxes. [ Reply | More
