He shared this news on his Facebook page.

«Residents of Sauvignon called me. There’s a snake in the yard again. It's a yellow-bellied racer, listed in the Red Book of Ukraine, non-venomous, and quite beautiful,» he wrote.

Igor also reminded everyone of his contact number – 068 140 45 39, where people can reach out for help, especially regarding snake issues.
