Snakes on a Highway
Georgia wildlife officials are investigating after 10 snakes and three lizards were found in a car during a traffic stop on Interstate 75 north of Atlanta.
Authorities say Cherokee County sheriff's deputies pulled the car over on Interstate 75 Monday.
An Indiana driver had 10 snakes and three different lizard species in the car.
The snakes were determined not to be venomous. The species included corn, coachwhip, pine, king andSouthern hognose snakes - all native to Georgia - plus a rosy boa, a non-native snake.
Authorities said the driver told them he caught the snakes in Florida and was taking them to Indiana. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service also is investigating why this was taking place.

Hmm.. I think maybe there's something wrong with the habitat they live in.
