Deadly snake found on ship at New Jersey port

Snake experts from the Bronx Zoo have rescued a poisonous Indian cobra that stowed away on a container ship headed to New Jersey's Port Elizabeth. The cobra, which is a protected species, was taken to the zoo where it is being treated by veterinarians. Anxious crew members on board the Maersk Sana called federal officials and wildlife authorities, and the Bronx Zoo's Kevin Torregosa, a herpetologist, a zoologist that studies reptiles and amphibians, responded with his partner. "When we located the snake deep below the deck of the container ship, it was in very poor condition". Torregosa says the snake was a bit dehydrated and weak. After climbing down eight stories into the hold of the ship, the two found the snake after about 30 minutes. It's estimated to be about one year old. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service contacted the The Wildlife Conservation Society's Bronx Zoo on Monday to help remove the cobra from the ship when it reached its New Jersey destination. The cobra was named Sana after the ship where she was found http://presstelegraph.com/2015/12/19/deadly-snake-found-on-ship-at-new-jersey-port.html
