Woman finds 'horny' snake snuggled up in her Ugg boot

An Australian woman enlisted the help of wildlife specialists to remove a “horny” snake snuggled up inside her ugg boot.

The eastern brown snake was captured by snake catcher Rolly Burrell at the woman’s home in Adelaide.

She contacted experts after she spotted a brown tail disappear into the warm, fluffy boot when she stepped outside to collect her shoes.

Mr Burrell told the BBC: “She went outside to get her ugg boots and she saw something shoot in there.

“She realised it was a snake."

The snake, said to be a typically shy breed, was released back into the wild.
