If while exploring Budapest this weekend you come across a pair of 1 to 1.5 metre long pythons, don't be alarmed! The two green tree pythons have been missing from the Budapest Zoo since late last week, according to the city's police.

While the snakes are not poisonous, authorities believe the likelihood of finding this scaly pair on the streets of Budapest is probably quite low. The lock on the terrarium where they were being kept was broken, and the authorities suspect the snakes were stolen by those intending to make a profit with the sale of this endangered species to collectors or traders.

Those with any information about the whereabouts of the pythons are encouraged to call the toll free number 06 80 555 111.
