We leave snakes alone. The boss is like, no, it's a python. Officer David said, I certainly hope somebody didn't dump her, but they're known for getting out of their aquariums.

But in Georgia, the police were looking for an escaped goat to Deluth Police Department. Set on social media, numerous calls came in as a loose goat trotting on Peachtree Industrial Boulevard, and the goat was reported to be acting like it had somewhere very important to be.
