Snake Watch 2012: Possible boa constrictor sighting

NewsNM Swickard - house prices may fall a little in that neighborhood, eh? From the Carlsbad Current-Argus - A Carlsbad woman believes she may have gotten a glimpse of Hellboy, the red-tailed boa constrictor that escaped from an enclosure at a Standpipe Road residence last month. Carlsbad Police Lt. Jennifer Moyers said Tuesday that the woman, who remains unidentified, reported last week seeing about 5 feet of a large snake on Standpipe, near a ditch just before Union Street. According to the woman, the snake was very large around, tan in color with black spots and had a long, flat head. Moyers said the report was delayed by about a week and when Carlsbad Animal Control Supervisor Tina Dorado went to the area to search for the animal, she was unable to locate anything. Moyers said this report could mean the snake is still alive in the area and asked residents to continue to use caution in regard to this matter. read more
