Missing 15-foot python named "Big Mama" found safe and returned to owners

A family in Chatsworth in suburban Los Angeles is elated over the return of their beloved 15-foot python named "Big Mama," who went missing more than a week ago. 

According to the Villalta family, the python was found in the backyard of one of their neighbors Wednesday. She was unharmed and was set to receive a bath after exploring the wild for the last week. 

The Villaltas say they've owned Big Mama for two years, spoiling her with two separate habitats -- an outdoor enclosure and an indoor pen that's both temperature- and humidity-controlled to ensure her comfort.
