That was what caught my eye too, WalMart & HomeDepot have had incidents of this happening. I believe a Pigmy Rattlesnake was one of the snakes involved.
It happens. The plants are brought in from nurseries, where they have been placed outside with nothing but a chain link fence barring animals from entering the nursery. Snakes are looking for shelters. How many Brown Recluse and Black Widow bites have been obtained from reaching into lumber piles, landscaping stones, etc? I just dont see why the snakes are making news when there have been OTHER cases of bites NOT involving snakes.
