Information appeal after dead snakes found in Glasgow

The Scottish SPCA is appealing for information after three deceased boa constrictors were found near Carbeth Loch in Blanefield, Glasgow.

We were alerted to the incident after a member of the public discovered the snakes.

Scottish SPCA inspector, Mairi Wright, said, “The snakes were found at one of the entrances to Carbeth Huts next to Carbeth Loch.

“They were lying close together, next to bags of rubbish at a fly-tipping spot.

“We are unsure of the cause of death for these reptiles, but the circumstances they were found in are very concerning.

“We are keen to ascertain what happened to these snakes and how they came to be there.

“If anyone recognises these reptiles, please contact our confidential animal helpline on 03000 999 999.”
