Abandoned 10-ft Albino Python Captured!
Recently, a 10-foot albino python was captured in the woods
at Land Between the Lakes National Recreation Area. The python was abandoned by
its pet owner who released it into the wild, but had no idea the impact
releasing this snake into the woods could do to the environment.
For years, people have been letting their unwanted pets go
into the woods at Land Between the Lakes and surrounding areas. There have been
numerous sightings of wild dogs and house cats turned wild that have led to the
declining number of bob white quails.
Some people also release their animals into
the wilderness because they are infected with diseases or rabies that go on and
threaten other livestock out there.
Think twice before letting your pet or any animal free into
the wild! Not only will they be in danger, but many other animals will be as well!
There are numerous adoption agencies, and plenty of people looking to take an animal in. There is no need to let them go in the wild!
