Animal control officer Kimberly Mink holds a boa constrictor that went missing and was found in Nampa. The 9-foot Columbian boa constrictor named Trinity that escaped its southwest Idaho cage was found after two days on the loose. Trinity didn’t appear to have traveled far after being spotted Sunday in the garage that holds the snake’s cage. Jittery neighbors with small pets and children went on alert after the owner reported to Nampa police on Saturday that the snake disappeared Friday afternoon and hadn’t eaten for three weeks.
