Mechanics were surprised by a hidden bore inside a pickup truck that was in the shop for maintenance.
The incident occurred in the Serra metropolitan area of Vitória, in the state of Espírito Santo in southeastern Brazil. The animal was discovered when a mechanic opened the hood.
After the unusual discovery, the mechanics contacted the Environmental Police and Serra Environment Agency, who dispatched officers to the scene and rescued the snake.
In a video shared on social media, Boa can be seen wrapping around one of the vehicle’s tires. Fortunately, he was rescued without any injuries.
After being rescued, the reptile was released into the Mestre Alvaro Nature Reserve. It is worth remembering that, despite their size, boas are a type of snake that is harmless to humans.
