On Monday, a man driving his car in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais had a nasty surprise.
As he was driving, a baby cascavel (rattlesnake) fell onto his lap. He immediately pulled over the car, and the authorities managed to capture the snake and bring it to the Polícia Ambiental (the Environmental Police). The man and the snake were both uninjured.
The man had been fishing on the Rio São Francisco, and surmised that the snake had somehow entered his car while he was out.
