“He’s a good guy.” A Minsk woman walked a boa constrictor right in the yard (2 photos + 1 video)
Yesterday, a much more epic video went viral on Instagram, filmed in one of the courtyards on Nekrasov Street in the capital: in it, a girl is walking a large boa constrictor.
The snake calmly warms itself on the grass, but as soon as it slightly protrudes onto the sidewalk, the girl carefully pushes it back with her foot. This whole picture looks so ordinary that people on social networks are not even particularly surprised.
“It’s okay, let the baby go for a walk. I don’t think it will quickly attack someone, like a dog without a muzzle,” they write in the comments. Well, there are also more than enough jokes about “a typical walk with my ex.”
The owner of the boa constrictor turned out to be Minsk resident Alexandra Soroka. She told Onlíner that the pet’s name is Sam and he has been living with her for quite a long time - 10 years. The snake loves to walk: the girl takes Sam out into the yard in the warm season, when it is hot and the earth is warm - usually at lunchtime or in the evenings.
Of course, the main question is: how do passersby react? Alexandra says that everyone loves the boa constrictor very much. “Mothers with children come, and dogs come too. Everyone asks to pet it and take a photo. At first, of course, there is a momentary shock, but then everyone goes to squeeze him. He’s a good-natured guy, he’s grown up with animals all his life, he treats everyone neutrally.”
Apparently, Sam really prefers a relaxed holiday to hunting. The girl shared another video from the day of the already famous walk: in it, the boa constrictor almost had to be saved from a crow.
