San Antonio veterinarians remove three golf balls from snake
Veterinarians at the South Texas Avian and Exotic Hospital in San Antonio, USA, successfully removed three golf balls from a snake without performing surgery. The hospital shared a video of the procedure on Instagram, showing the snake under heavy sedation.
Medical staff manually manipulated the snake's body to move the objects toward its mouth. After the first ball was carefully extracted, doctors discovered two additional golf balls still lodged inside. The team repeated the process for the remaining two balls, ensuring the animal remained safe throughout the unusual rescue operation.
