Over the Mardi Gras weekend, "Saffron" the pet possum was confiscated from his owner by the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries in the French Quarter.
Louisiana visitors and Louisiana's Governor Jeff Landry were surprised to see a 10-foot snake confiscated in the heart of New Orleans French Quarter over the weekend.
Lt. Governor Billy Nungesser says "for thirty years we've been talking about cleaning up the French Quarter, getting crime under control, and it just hasn't happened."
