That's not carry-on: Loose snake slumbers on Alaska flight
ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) - Anna McConnaughy was flying to Alaska's largest city when the announcement came over the intercom: a passenger on a previous flight had brought a pet snake on board. A little boy, one of seven passengers on the Ravn Alaska commuter flight Sunday from the Alaska village of Aniak to Anchorage, was climbing on his seat when he spotted the slumbering snake.

The poor snake D: I hope it didn't smother in that bag ...
This isn't much of an article (more of a soundbite), and leaves so many questions unanswered. My main question is why didn't the previous passenger who brought the snake onboard notice they didn't have it when they left?
Also how did they get the snake through the TSA checkpoint in the first place? They wont even let you bring a bottle of water through and check everything you carry on, how did they miss a snake?
Finally a use for this Samuel L. Jackson clip. also here is the hilarious censored version of that clip.
