CHE Press: Un python royal en vadrouille

Aug 02, 2007 11:34 AM

Paperboy Note: Honkin' huge "Royal Python" found loose in Zurich. I can understand why they're concerned with young snakes wandering loose!

LE MATIN (Zurich, Switzerland) 02 August 07 Un python royal en vadrouille à Zurich
Photo at URL below: L'animal vit surtout en Afrique centrale et de l´Ouest. (Keystone)
La police zurichoise a capturé mardi après-midi un jeune serpent en ballade dans un quartier populaire de la ville. Ses propriétaires restent introuvables.
Une passante a aperçu le reptile et informé la police municipale zurichoise de sa surprenante découverte, a-t-elle indiqué jeudi dans un communiqué. De couleur brun foncé, avec des taches brun clair, l´animal capturé n´a pas encore atteint la taille adulte et mesure environ 50 cm de long. Le python royal (python regius) vit principalement en Afrique centrale et de l´Ouest.

No wonder he was a "honkin huge" royal, he was a burm

Must be a mix up with the text and pic because the snake found was 19 inches and the one on the pic is definitely not 19 inches nor is he a ball.

I guess the reporters try to find a picture to illustrate their story they just pic the wrong python.
