Sarp the anaconda dies of infection

SARP, the anaconda found at the Caroni Cremation Site on Boxing Day 2012, has died.
Curator at the Emperor Valley Zoo Nirmal Biptah said the 18-foot anaconda died on Tuesday from a respiratory infection that the snake may have contracted before it was found.
For several months, a zoo veterinarian and other experts had been administering antibiotics to the snake to aid its chances of survival. However, it could not be saved.
Biptah said the snake’s diet was simple, as it favoured eating duck, a meal it consumed only twice a year after the reptile shed its skin.
The snake was a major attraction at the zoo and was a great loss, said Biptah.
Mohan Bholasingh, president of the South Eastern Hunters Association, said early last year in an interview with Express the snake should have been returned to the wild, as it was driven out by man-made infrastructure.
Bholasingh had said: “The snake, however, is heavily compromised and may not survive in this environment because of its size.
“The capture of the animal may not have resulted in major harm because of the flexibility and robustness of the constrictor’s body.
“However, the long-term impact on the snake would result from the inability to move and flex in the confined space at the zoo.”
Zoo officials said the snake carcass will be incinerated.
