Full story: Baby pythons escape during flight in Australia
MELBOURNE, Australia - Four baby pythons escaped from a container aboard a passenger plane in Australia, leading to a search that forced the cancellation of two flights, the airline said Thursday.
Twelve non-venemous Stimson pythons were being transported Tuesday on a flight from Alice Springs to Melbourne in the plane's cargo area in a bag inside a plastic foam box with air holes.
When the flight landed, it was discovered four snakes had escaped from the package, a Qantas spokeswoman said in a statement.
A reptile expert searched for the 15-centimetre-long snakes but did not find them.It was not known if the snakes were still on the plane or if they had somehow escaped outside after the plane landed.
Problem: Hmmmm. Possibly something to do with "air holes"?

Yeah, holes in the box are never a good thing. You would think there was something like a little screen door?
And did they make a mid-flight announcement, like "There is no need to panic, but 4 Pythons are on the loose"
Whatever, they weren't even poisonous!!!
Plus, they were cute widdle baba snakes!
Life, meet art. Commence imitation.
