UPI – A three-foot ball python will be reunited with its owner after hitchhiking across the state of Virginia in a U-Haul truck.
Virginia Wildlife Management and Control said personnel responded to a U-Haul business in Henrico County when a manager opened the door of a truck and discovered a large, non-native snake.
Wildlife rescuer Richard Perry said the three-foot snake was lethargic from the cold.
“We didn’t even think it would make it through the night,” Perry told WRIC-TV. “It was in very, very bad shape.”
The U-Haul business contacted the truck’s previous renter, but they didn’t know anything about a python.
