>>WCBS (New York, New York) 23 September 06 Python Snake On The Loose At Long Island School
>>Hauppauge, N.Y. (CBS/AP): N.Y. Students at a Long Island school have more than the three R's to deal with these days.
>>They're hunting for a reptile running loose.
>>The 2-foot snake name is Slim, a ball python who escaped from its tank in the sixth-grade science room. The snake had been a pet inside the room for five years at Hauppauge Middle School.
>>On Tuesday, teachers were putting Slim and another snake named Otis back into their containers when a student with a problem in the hall distracted them for a few moments.
>>"The calculating snakes took this as an opportunity to make a break for it," principal Maryann Fletcher explained to parents in a letter.
>>Otis was caught. Slim was not.
>>Pythons, cold-blooded serpents native to West Africa, are not generally dangerous. If afraid, they usually roll themselves into a ball.
>>Still, the principal promised that the school is "making every effort to locate the snake." To entice the critter, the school has set up heating lamps and traps filled with crickets.
