The Penobscot is farther north - and the poor kid who drowned fell off the railroad bridge in Orono (which I admit I crossed many times in not the best state).

The Presumpscot is in southern Maine near Portland.

and no - i don't think kids should be swimming there until after next winter...

yup

You charmer, you.

More details in another report:

been seen in the area recently?

Maybe they don't really want to catch it, since it's been seen feeding by officers. They might like the local snake monster legend.

Shedding usually takes about one to two weeks. Someone would have noticed NO?? - The photo is poor, but it looks like there is more than one thin tail...a large snake skin - someone has a sick sense of humor....anaconda - largest 134ft????? Oh, my!! Maybe - but then, colleges - 5 colleges in the area..prank?? - still sick!!

If an anaconda eats David Hasselhoff, I figure it must be on our side.

Oh never mind, it is actually a visual I already have of him.....LOL

3, I think, but I can't be sure. The only one I remember is the one with Jennifer Lopez.

Someone abandoned a Gabon Viper near Portland a few years back - it froze to death...

If you have a pet - you need to care for it - forever.

Don't care if it's a snake or a goldfish.

yup

When you bring an animal into your life, you've assumed the responsibility for its care.

It's that simple and it's non-negotiable. They are your family.

Sadly, it will simply suffer in torpor until it finally freezes to death. Even if it's found alive after the first frost, it's unlikely they could do anything to help it to survive.

How would you like to come across this fellow?
