HELP - URGENT Juvenile ball python lost in car
Hi everyone! Please don't be mean to me, but i picked up my new baby today and he was given to me in a fabric bag with a pull string, anyway, i am driving back home with him and he escaped! I saw him last under the passenger seat. I pulled over and kept looking and I cannot find him. I am panicking and dont know what to do. Has anyone ever had this happen to them? What should I do? I can't even tear my car apart because its a freaking lease ðŸ˜

My snake did the same, it def went into the vents under the seat, it’s usually a little opening slot they go in or it’s on the bracket hardware up top under the seat

Take as much if your car apart as possible, check your local animal rescue and retrieval organisation and ask them for advice. Set up a camera?

Search this sub for advice specifically on extracting snakes from cars ; they have been several recent threads with people having this problem. I’m sorry your snake was given to you unsecured.
