Hold on, not only did she feed a kitten to a snake she was planning to feed it more of them‽
-
yeah apparently she some how came across a liter of sick kittens and her first thought was "snake food".

Is she a psychopath?

No, concered for the snakes welfare, so fed the snake.

ok...I just have questions. A. it was an ailing kitten, fair enough, but if you have a snake in your classroom don't you already have access to mice/rats to feed it? B. there were MULTIPLE ailing kittens that the teacher then allowed a student to take home, why were there MULTIPLE? C. Where the hell did this teacher find MULTIPLE ailing kittens? D. what did all these ailing kittens have? simple eye infections? like...I don't get it. If you have a liter of kittens that are all sick wouldn't you take them to the vet? Even if I personally had a snake my first thought wouldn't be "hmmm, multiple sick kittens...I'm going to feed them ALL to my snake at school"

Sheesh. Do they think the snake is a vegetarian, or what? I know I'm going to get downvoted for this comment, but 'animal lovers' who refuse to accept the circle of life... 🙄
Circle of life is to feed a kitten to a snake in a middle of classroom? Go eat some road kill you psycho
I see you're one of those people who believe in reading only the headline, and making judgements based on clickbait.
No students were present to observe the feeding, which occurred outside school hours.
This would not be news if the teacher just shot the kitten.
My concerns are whether the kitten was killed before being fed to the snake and whether the snake could suffer harm from eating sick food. Also, whether the "ailing kittens" were already known to the students, as maybe classroom pets.
Very sure a juicy tidbit like that would have been highlighted in a tabloid article like this.
The meal being fed either alive or dead are both common practices with snake owners, and the sickness should not be a problem given the extremely different physiologies.
