    Paul the Periscoping Python
    I decided to make Paul McCartney, my Ivory ball python, our new classroom addition. He's quickly become a favorite in my zoo, and is making headway towards overcoming the fear that some of my students have in snakes. One of Paul's favorite activities is periscoping.

    He has eaten every time offered, even with dozens of students leering, giggling, and screaming around him. Paul is going to be an ambassador for many years to come in my classroom.

    Make sure you keep him in a LOCKED cage. You wouldn't want a snake like that to go missing.

    What is up with white snakes? My super mojave is also a mad periscoper.

    Oh, yeah. In a classroom setting especially. I might actually keep him at home and bring him in for special occasions.

    Awesome teacher! Haha my science teacher had an 8 foot boa he kept in class and that made it my favorite class lol but he never let us hold him, school said no student can hold him once he reached five feet. I wish more teachers would keep snakes tho specially science teachers.
