Word to the wise: The TSA is really cracking down on what constitutes an "emotional support animal."

So, no ma'am, you are not allowed to bring your boa constrictor onto a plane.


The Tampa women attempted to do just that, trying to sssssssneak in the four-foot snake in her carry-on luggage.  Thankfully, the snake "Bartholemew" was detected while going through an X-ray machine.

According to Yahoo!, a TSA spokesperson said the agency contacted the airline, which said that she couldn't bring the snake aboard the aircraft.
