S-s-ay, That Snake Was Misidentified
We are students at Westpark school in Mrs. Turner’s second-grade class. We saw your article in the newspaper (“Sleepin’ Safari,” Sept. 10). We would like you to know that the snake in the picture is a red tail boa, not a python. We know this because we have pet snakes in our class and we have seen a real red tail boa for ourselves.
