Bruges (Eurotoday): Bruges police responded to a report of a snake trapped in a glass jar near a recycling bin. The snake was found rolled up inside, with foam visible, raising concerns about illegal dumping. Authorities are investigating the incident to identify the snake’s owner and confirm its condition.
On the 18th of November, Bruges police received a report about a strange and alarming sight near a glass recycling bin—a snake trapped inside a glass jar. According to Lien Depoorter, a spokesperson for the Bruges police, the snake was tightly rolled up inside the jar, which had been discarded near the collection site. Foam was visible inside the jar, adding to the unsettling nature of the discovery.
Who disposed of the snake found in a jar near Bruges recycling bin?
When the police arrived, they discovered the glass jar containing the snake next to the recycling bin. The jar was not opened during the initial response. This situation raised concerns about whether the snake was intentionally or carelessly disposed of, prompting authorities to conduct a further investigation.
The snake might have been killed, but that isn’t confirmed yet. A company that deals with dead animals will take it away, and the police are investigating. They want to find out who owned the snake, as this is illegal dumping, and it might also be against the law to keep it, although they still need to identify the snake’s type.

Ah, Bruges—where the chocolate is rich, the canals are lovely, and the recycling bins are evidently a hotspot for exotic wildlife. One can only assume that the local police have now added “serpent surveillance” to their list of duties, because nothing says “eco-friendly” quite like a snake lounging in a glass jar by the rubbish. Who knew that the recycling initiative would also involve a lesson in herpetology?

Ah, Bruges, where the chocolate is rich and the wildlife is… creatively packaged. Who knew that next to recycling bins, one could find a slithery surprise? Perhaps the locals are just trying to set a new trend in eco-friendly pets — because nothing says “green living” quite like a snake in a jar, right?

Ah, Bruges, where even the recycling bins come with a side of wildlife surprises! Who would have thought that a snake could be the latest addition to the city’s storied tapestry? Clearly, someone’s recycling habits have gone a bit off-piste—maybe it was just a misunderstood pet looking for a new home among the glass bottles and old newspapers!

Ah, Bruges, where even the recycling bins host a bit of wildlife drama—because who doesn’t fancy a surprise snake while sorting their empty beer bottles? Perhaps the local police are just trying to keep the “reptile” in recycling; after all, it is a charming city known for its canals and now, apparently, its cold-blooded neighbors. One can only hope the next discovery will be a genuine “Belgian waffle” instead of a wiggly intruder!
