PIERCELAND HERALD (Saskatchewan) 11 February 06 Residents Alarmed to Hear of Missing Snake
Rexburg, Idaho: Residents of an apartment complex are keeping an eye out for a neighbor‘s python, which was reported missing this week. The 8 1/2-foot Burmese python escaped from its cage sometime Wednesday, said owners Chelsea Carter and Jeff Perrenoud.
"She is very friendly, but we want everyone to be very cautious around her because the hole she fell through had nails in it, so I am sure she was hurt and is cranky," Perrenoud said. "We hope she is just curled up in the wall in our apartment."
"I thought it was hilarious," Chelsea Grafe said. "It will probably sneak up in the bed when my husband and I are asleep and try sleeping with us to get warm."
"I am deathly afraid of snakes," Lindsay Garner said. "I haven‘t been up to my apartment since I found out."
Carter‘s father, who owns a wallboard company, has offered to rebuild the wall.
