That Giant Albino Snake All Children Love Is a She, Not a He

Somehow this is not what we imagined when we were told to meet 'Fantasia' in a dark room in Brooklyn.

“An article on Feb. 17 about a decline in field trips for students because of the New York City school bus drivers’ strike referred incorrectly to the 280-pound albino Burmese python at the Brooklyn Children’s Museum. The python, a favorite of schoolchildren, is a ‘she’ (Fantasia), not a ‘he.’”
 — The NYT is taking this accountability thing very seriously, when it comes to enormous albino zoo animals that are a favorite of children.
