Mark Pelley, from Melbourne, Australia, was called to remove a 1.5-meter eastern brown snake from a 3-year-old’s room.
“Mom went to get some clothes for her son and found a large five-foot brown snake instead,” Pelley wrote in a post on Facebook.
“We figured out what happened. She carried in folded washing yesterday and as she was taking clothes from [the] clothes line, [the] brown snake crawled into it.”
Some people in the comments wondered how it was possible not to notice the reptile. Pelley took the opportunity to share that these creatures are really lightweight, and people tend to not notice them.
“They weigh next to nothing and seriously — this can happen to anyone. I’ve seen people carry brown snakes in their handbag or otherwise shopping bags. One day this could happen to you.”
