The situation in flooded areas is dire more than a week after Hurricane Daniel. The risk of disease is high, and the inhabitants live and move in stagnant water. Snakes began to be seen frequently.
A typical case is that of a resident who saw a snake in Palama emerging from the water… 2.5 meters long.
“Lafiatis or Laphitis is a non-venomous snake of the Cainospidae family. However, few people understand whether it is poisonous or not, and they experience real stress when they come face to face with such a reptile,” the caption to the post says.
In fact, it is the largest species found in Greece (1.5 to 2 m). Laphitis is not an aggressive snake at all, harmless to humans, but can bite if grabbed.

In other reports, residents of flooded areas have seen fish “swimming” along sidewalks. Well, what can I say…
