An RSPCA officer who rescued a 10ft python from a tree has compared the scene to hit Disney film The Jungle Book. Justin Stubbs was called to the scene in Cambridgeshire on Friday after a motorcyclist called the police about a snake slithering across the road. Mr Stubbs said: “I really could not believe it when I got there and saw this huge snake all the way up in the tree – it was a scene a bit reminiscent of The Jungle Book. Mr Stubbs said the snake may have been loose for some time as it was “cold and a little underweight”. “This is why we’re always saying that people should do their research before taking on a pet.”
