Russell ‘The Snake Chaser’ Cavendar was called in to remove the boa constrictor from the car’s engine bay in Myrtle Beach
has plenty of wild wildlife, including bears and alligators, but boa constrictors are not native to the region, so the shop turned to Russell Cavendar, otherwise known as The Snake Chaser, for help. Cavendar safely removed the snake, though he did need to get Beach Automotive’sto remove multiple parts from the engine bay to give him better access to the reptile. The animal expert guessed the snake, which isn’t venomous but has a nasty bite, had crawled into the engine bay for warmth.
The car’s owner said he had no idea where the snake had come from, and since the species is not indigenous, it must have escaped from its owner’s care, or, just as likely, was dumped into the wild. Although the boa looks pretty chunky to us, Cavendar says it was underweight, suggesting it had not been well cared for, and promised to nurse it back to health and give it to a breeder if the owner didn’t come forward to reclaim it.
