Spotted python release

Heya guys!

The other night posted a thread about a spotted python living in a crack near the late night door of the college... when I checked tonight, he was nowhere to be found, so i started investigating all the nice hiding spots in the gym, because the python had been right near the gym door. low and behold i found him under some cardboard boxes. Other people had started to notice him and freak out that night, so i thought id better move him. so, I caught him, took some photos, and released him in the bush, away from buildings. I know you guys said to leave him, but he had gotten inside, and would have been problems if others had seen him.

a few pics for now; but i have to fly, this has put me way behind schedule, have two assignments due on thursday! gah!!
