Poor snake! I bet it's previous owner dumped it when it started to get to
big to look after. Irresponsible pet owners is a pet hate (pun intended) of
mine. I used to be in the tropical fish business, breeder and consultant to
public aquaria/large private aquaria etc and saw lots of people trying to
get rid of fish that they had bought 'because they looked nice' without
doing their homework and realising that they'd grow to two/three feet long
and eat their tankmates.
