This piece of art is in regard to the horrors and injustice of FWC workers killing 34 pythons including a pregnant boa due to a misidentification which they were told beforehand to be careful since it was a snake the owner, Chris Coffee, was allowed to legally own. This massacre was all recorded by the FWC workers after coming to Coffee’s house unannounced, killing the snakes with a bolt gun that Coffee wasn’t able to rehome in time, even taking pictures with the dead bodies like a reward.
