Snake obesity is at epidemic levels these days, especially for domesticated snakes. These snakes can slither back and forth in their terrariums, but this is not enough exercise to keep the pounds off. The only solution is to get these fat snakes outside for a walk, but letting chubby snakes roam free on their own is not a good idea. Lucky for us, Mr. Donald Robert Martin Boys of Bella Vista, California, invented a novel snake leash, which is described in U.S. patent 6,490,999 that issued in 2002.
Sounds great for my snake, but won’t this make me look uncool?
You must be kidding. Fig. 4 of the patent should be a clear example of how awesome you will look walking a snake around your neighborhood. Killer sunglasses, a serious stare, and a pair of classy loafers is only one of the many looks that goes well with snake-walking.
