Bigsby said it was a struggle to get the snake out of the car as it had wrapped itself around something.
“I had hold of its tail from the rear of the snake, kept hold of it for two hours before it finally gave up and came out,” he said.
Bigsby has responded to a number of different incidents since starting the rescue centre in 2024 but has never removed one from a car before.
“This is a first for me, we’ve had them in dustbins, hedgerows, riverbanks, footpaths but we’ve never had one in a car engine bay before,” he said.
The snake has been cared for at Bigsby’s rescue centre since and its owner will collect it on Tuesday.
He said it was a “beautiful snake, no signs of aggression, no bad moods, no nothing”.
“It’s a lovely, lovely snake.”
