The correct and proper punishment is to stuff the thieves in a dumpster, preferably a nice ripe one behind a restaurant serving food that turns quickly after a slow evening. Eau de garbage by Serpen Tine.

A loose re-enactment of what happened when the thieves opened the duffel bag. You’ll have to color in the screaming and running away parts with your imagination.

Glad they found the poor reptiles.
Btw, skinks held on to their legs, so that’s really three snakes and one skink:

I think you mis-read:
…Three ball pythons, a baby albino caramel Burmese python and a blue-tailed skink…
That said, i almost made the same mistake.

So instead of three snakes and a skink it’s four snakes and a skink.
Why does the headline make no mention of the skink? Does boingboing hate skinks?

Thanks! I skipped over a poor wee python there, thinking the skink was being lumped in with the sneks.

So, he put down a bunch of valuable-looking bags (that he knows contain living creatures) on the curb, then walked away from them across the parking lot and got in a vehicle on the other end, then drove back and he’s surprised someone took them? Probably before he got to the van. Just carry the bags, dude! If I take a pet ANYwhere by car I am there next to them at all times. 
I LOVE this song. Beyond being a lovely story, it is the only song I know that has an audible shudder in the chorus (refrain?).
