Happy St. Patrick’s Day Internet!

In 400ad there was a man by the name of St. Patrick that went to Ireland and explained that whole Christianity thing to everybody. He spent thirty years on his mission trip and was revered as a saint several centuries later. Supposedly, he even drove out all the snakes in Ireland.

 

How It Went Down

 

No mean feat for someone who wasn’t a wizard.

 

My question though is what happened to all the snakes and where did they go?

 

Maybe there’s a correlation between the disappearance of snakes in Ireland and England’s Great Snake Plague of 435ad.
