Pythons Rescued From Mumbai School, Thane Housing
Snakes, specifically Indian rock pythons, are showing up in places they don't usually live because of heavy rain.
In Mumbai and a nearby city called Thane, two pythons were found - one at a school and the other in a housing area.
The snakes are leaving their usual homes because the rain has flooded them.
This means more people are seeing them in places like schools and apartment buildings.
The rescue happened quickly, within a single day.
Two Indian rock pythons were rescued in the Mumbai and Thane region.
One python was rescued from a school in Mumbai.
The other python was rescued from a housing society in Thane.
The rescues occurred within a 24-hour period.
Heavy rains caused snakes to leave their flooded habitats.
