KALIBO, Aklan: An inmate at the Aklan Rehabilitation
Center (ARC) in Barangay Nalook, Kalibo was immediately transferred
to the Dr. Rafael S. Tumbukon Memorial Hospital here after he was
bitten by his pet, a rattlesnake, reported the Philippine News
Agency.
Inmate Eric Villanueva said that
he found the snake crawling inside the ARC compound two months ago
and because of his loneliness at the detention compound, he decided
to take care of the snake in secret.
He said that he thought the snake
could not harm him because he was already bitten by the same snake a
month ago and that he ignored it.
Despite the incident, he promised
to keep the snake as his companion while at the center.
