A 3-foot-long ball python escaped from its cage inside a Wisconsin high school – and is believed to be hiding out inside a science lab ventilation system, school officials told The Post.

While the couple distracted an employee, they allegedly grabbed two designer ball pythons from a cage that was unlocked for cleaning. The tiny snakes were worth about $650 to $800 each.

A mushroom forager is credited with saving two ball pythons abandoned in a Durham, North Carolina forest, a reptile rescue group says.
