GoPro footage captures large snake's amazing escape

Who would have guessed that a 4 foot long milk snake is able to climb out of a large garbage pail with such ease? It also climbs a camera tripod and coiles around the GoPro before slithering away. Milk snakes are a very beneficial predator to have in your yard. In addition to having beautiful markings, they rid your home of vermin like mice and rats. This snake was found in a pile of mulch that was being moved. It was relocated to a safer spot nearby but it escaped in the process, leaving some amazing footage before it disappeared.
