Firefighters called out to deal with dangerous snake discovered pumpkin

Five firefighters in Steyr, Upper Austria, responded to a call to capture what locals believed was a dangerous snake.



Passers-by had spotted the large reptile on a path by the river Enns.

However, when they arrived at the site they realised it was in fact a rather large, snake-shaped pumpkin .



It's not clear if it was placed there by pranksters or had washed up from the river.

That doesn't look like any pumpkin I ever saw. Maybe some kind of squash, but a pumpkin? No way.

I've never seen a pumpkin like it either, Barbwire.

As you say, it's probably a kind of squash.
