    Default Mad Snake Virus

    Until now, no one knew why pythons and boa constrictors would sometimes tie themselves up in knots, stare into space and appear drunk.Now scientists believe the fatal condition, known as inclusion body disease (IBD), is caused by a rodent virus. It can hit aquariums hard by infecting a large number of snakes before it's identified, and, with no treatment available, sick snakes must be euthanized.

    Sign of end of times, surely

    Ok, maybe not. Science is wonderful.
