FISHERS, Ind. (WISH) - A python that went missing last week at Fishers Junior High School has been found.
Rocky, a non-venomous, Ball Python, escaped from its cage in a 7th grade science classroom.
School officials said last week that the classroom would not be used until Rocky was found.
Rocky does not have fangs and at one point was a family pet, officials say.
School administrators left a heat light on in its aquarium, and yesterday a teacher found the python had returned.
Children were able to return to the classroom and administrators say Rocky will no longer be kept in the class and can only visit on special ocassions.
