In what could well have been a fit of jealousy over all the attention being given to Pit bulls, a pet anaconda sank its teeth into the wrist of a West Bank Demerara woman yesterday morning as she passed close to its owner at the City Mall on Regent Street.
Carlotta Osborne of 26 Nismes, West Bank Demerara was taken for treatment at the Georgetown Public Hospital yesterday after she was bitten on her right wrist. The anaconda, which bit her, belongs to the well-known ‘Snake Man’, who can invariably be found with his snake coiled around his neck or arm, at the City Mall or in its vicinity most Saturdays.
