Just when you thought your BeltLine jog couldn't get more interesting, here comes an 8-foot python.

The snake was spotted on the trail this week, presumably an escaped pet. It's not clear exactly where on the BeltLine the snake was seen or whether it's been captured.

This is Atlanta, after all. We've had peacocks in Druid Hills, coyotes in Piedmont Park, and now pythons on the BeltLine. Watch where you step.
