A pet owner in the UK has been reported to have drunkenly decapitated her two snakes with scissors before swallowing their heads.
28-year-old Jennifer Lampe was discovered by police with the still-moving but headless body of her boa constrictor around her neck and both reptiles’ severed heads in her trouser pockets.
She had “vomited up” the heads after swallowing them, telling animal inspectors she had “wanted to keep them”.
On Thursday she was given a four-month jail term suspended for two years in what magistrates called an “unpleasant, not to say bizarre, incident” of animal cruelty.
She was also banned from keeping animals for five years.
