The Greatful Grass Snake . . .

A member of the public visited us recently with a grass snake. He has a nest of Grass snakes in his garden, and he noticed that one of them had managed to get itself stuck in some pond netting!

It was wrapped around the middle part of the snakes body, and it looked like he had eaten a meal recently which prevented him from sliding out of the netting!

With some very precise cutting, our head nurse Claire managed to free him and you could tell he felt better immediately!
The gentleman who brought him in, took him home to reunite him with the rest of his slithery companions.
