A man has actually been identified sunbathing with 20 of his snakes in a Paisley park, stimulating an argument amongst Facebook users about which family pets are proper in public areas.
A post on the Friends of Barshaw Park Facebook group said it had actually been gotten in touch with by numerous individuals “with concerns about someone bringing snakes” into park” into Barshaw Park.
It continued: “It’s been reported that just recently 20 snakes were generated by the individual.
“Renfrewshire Council have actually informed us that no-one has authorization to bring snakes into Barshaw Park.
“The police request that if you see anyone in the park with snakes, please do not approach the person, but call the police on 101, and they will attend.”
Members of the group remained in 2 minds over whether the man must be prohibited from bringing his slithery family pets out public.
One individual commented: “I’ve seen this person in the park over the last number of years. He is a beautiful individual, really friendly, well-informed and constantly ready to respond to any concerns.
“His snakes are calm and I have held them several times.”
Another composed: “Me personally, I wouldn’t have any of my animals anywhere near a public space, as why even present the risk in the first place?”
One lady said she had actually satisfied the man a couple of times with her kids, and he had actually responded to “1,001 questions” the kids had.
She composed: “Really great person, responded to the 1,001 concerns we had about snakes. The snakes were under control and taking pleasure in a little sunbathe.
“Can we show the same concern for people bringing their out-of-control dogs to the park?”
