For a change, a heart-warming story from China. Some man met a bunch of youths standing at the roadside advertising their wares by yelling
"All sorts of delicacies, caught in the wild. Great nutrition! Buy quickly!"
He investigated and, to his surprise, discovered that among the "food" on sale was a large python. After realising that this is a protected species in China, he began to bargain to buy the thing. Finally, he got it for ¥1,500.
He later donated the beast to Liuzhou Zoo.
Shame really. I like a bit of snake. Preferably smoked.
