Missing 12-foot python found in crawl space of Mall of Louisiana
A 12-foot python that escaped from its enclosure inside Louisiana’s largest shopping mall has been found, authorities said Thursday.
The snake was recaptured in a ceiling crawl space early Thursday morning after two days of searching, WBRZ-TV reported.
Video posted by the station shows workers using a ladder as Cara — wrapped around the shoulder and back of one of them — is carried down. The yellow and white Burmese python was taken to the Louisiana School of Veterinary Medicine for a health check.
Cara slithered out of her enclosure at the Blue Zoo in the Mall of Louisiana in Baton Rouge on Tuesday.
