Imagine walking into a restroom and spotting a rattlesnake coiled on the toilet.
That’s apparently what happened at the Davis-Monthan Air Force Base in Arizona this week.
According to News 4 Tucson, the rattler was encountered in the female restroom of the 355th Maintenance Group, 355 Munitions Squadron.
Folks outside were alerted to something unusual when a "squeal" was heard inside the restroom.

Not too problematic, apparently. The snake was captured and removed by personnel from the 355th Civil Engineer Squadron Entomology office.
The rattlesnake most likely had been seeking a cool resting spot, and the smooth surface of a porcelain toilet fit the bill.
