Last Thursday the GSPCA was called during a rising tide to one of the outcrops at Bordeaux Harbour to rescue a snake.
The grey and black photos of the animals were sent to the GSPCA Animal Ambulance Warden Suzy Rose who called the GSPCA Manager and informed the States Vet.
The pictures were scrutinised by many of the team and although some concerns were raised we are here to help animals and a plan was made to venture to the grassy outcrop of rocks when the next low tide occurred during daylight hours.
Last October the GSPCA were involved in rescuing 4 reptiles some of which were so thin they were lucky to still be alive.
After months of care at the GSPCA the owner of the animals attended the Magistrates Court in St Peter Port yesterday.
The animals involved were 2 corn snakes, a royal python and a bearded dragon. When they were rescued it was apparent that they hadn’t been cared for in some time due to the state of the enclosures which were extremely dirty and not appropriate for the animals due to the fittings and lack of provisions.
