Königspython to the bus stop: Animal welfare calls for posture!

Königspython to the bus stop: Animal welfare calls for posture!

Kenn, Deutschland - A passerby discovered a royal spython left alone a few days ago - and only at a bus stop! The approximately one and a half meter long snake had been suspended in a specially prepared bucket, presumably by its owner. Fortunately, the python was found in time because the cold temperatures could have been doomed. The finder handed over the line of the police, which she then handed over to the fire brigade, which now takes care of the animal. In the meantime, the police are looking for the responsible owner of the dangerous creature.

The animal rights organization PETA uses the incident to request a general ban on keeping exotic animals in private households. According to PETA, the purchase of such animals, which often require high specialist knowledge, should be prohibited, since every year hundreds of them either escape from terrariums or exposed to overwhelmed owners. In addition, the organization warns that many of these animals can wear salmonella, which are serious health risks in humans.
