Anne Keane posts a brief video of a snake on the train. Red Line, of course, because, really, what other line would a self-respecting snake take?

Looks like Ball Python, the golden retrievers of the snake world. Completely harmless. Their defense mechanism is to curl up into a ball and hide their head in the middle. (If they can't see you, hopefully you can't see them.)

If I see an uncaged snake weirdo on my train, that's the one time I'm going to want to also see a katana trenchcoat weirdo. Let them fight each other. Anyone got extra hand sanitizer?

Under ADA rules a snake can be considered a service animal. If the Transit Police tried to remove him from the train they probably would be sued.

Snakes, like other "small domestic animals", are permitted on the T, though they are supposed to be carried in lap-size containers.
