In another post, the zoo shared “She’s back! Our girl is back home! We are so thankful and excited! Thank you to the LSU School of Veterinary Medicine, who shares: After being examined by the zoological medicine team at the LSU School of Veterinary Medicine, Cara the Python was discharged and is going home!” The post is complete with a link of a Facebook post by the veterinary centre and an image of the snake.

People had a lot to say on all the posts. “Many of us want to meet Cara the runaway snake,” joked a Facebook user. “Such a beautiful snake,” shared another. “Great news,” expressed a third.

According to CNN, the aquarium workers believe that the snake escaped from her enclosure on Monday night. After she was discovered missing, around 140 stores in the mall were briefly closed on Tuesday. Cara is a Burmese python, a species of nonvenomous snakes that mainly feed on birds and reptiles.
