Okay, fam, listen up! There's a whole-ass snake situation going down in Tofino. A six-foot boa constrictor dipped out near mid-Chesterman Beach on Sunday afternoon, and now everyone's low-key panicking. It's giving total "Snakes on a Plane" vibes, but like, on a beach. 🏝️🐍

The Coastal Animal Rescue & Education Network (CARE Network) got the tea on Monday morning and they're already on it. They posted on Facebook, begging for help to find this sneaky snek. As of this morning, it's still playing hide-and-seek. 👀

Word on the street is, if you spot this green, tan, and brown danger noodle, don't even think about picking it up. Just hit up CARE Network at 250-266-WOOF (9663), animal control, or the RCMP, stat. Apparently, it’s not a threat to humans, but your hamster might be sus of it. 🐹😬

Turns out, the snake's guardian is supposedly a local resident. CARE Network is the main contact for updates, so keep your eyes peeled, Tofino!
