Owner left detailed notes with python dumped in Oxford
A " very lucky" snake has been rescued after it was found dumped by a bin in a park.
Detailed notes were left on The Box containing the Ball Python , including its name - Barry . It was found by a member of The Public in Oxford.
The Reptile was passed on to the RSPCA, which said it was lucky to have survived the cold.
The Charity is appealing for information after The Discovery in Rivermead Nature Park on 6 November.
The python has been transferred to a specialist exotics centre where it is recovering.
The Note from its owner stated: " Handle with care, Ball Python . Non-venomous reptile enclosed. "
There was also a typed-up piece of paper which had information about when The Snake had hatched, the dates of its first and last shed, and when it had last been fed.
The RSPCA said snakes often end up in its care " when owners realise The Commitment that is involved" but " abandoning an animal alone and in a situation like this is never okay".
RSPCA inspector Malwina Gasiorek said: " Snakes are unable to produce their own Body Heat , and with the colder weather we're having recently, The Snake may not have survived for much longer on its own.
" Whoever abandoned this snake knew plenty of information about it, which is why it is baffling to understand why they were abandoned.
" There is no guarantee that an abandoned animal will be found or not become hurt or lost. "
The RSPCA has just launched its Join the Christmas Rescue campaign which shows that abandonment calls coming into its emergency line are at a three-year high.
In October alone, 1,800 incidents of abandonment were reported.
The RSPCA said anyone struggling.
