Not sure, Like I said, I found that on an image search some time ago.

I have to agree, I never put anything in my snakes cages that the animal could get caught in... it's just common sense.

I found it was one of the top images found on the 'snake xray' google image search.

Edit: Good news! I found everyone's answer. Yes, the snake was successfully treated and released back into the wild. I farmer stated he regularly discarded burned out lights from his chicken coop. He one day found a snake with two large lumps and took it to the vet where they found lightbulbs lodged in its stomach. The vet performed surgery on the snake, removing said light bulbs. After recovering, the snake was released back into the wild.
