It all played out at Deer Jump Reservation, which is along the Merrimack River, Andover Animal Control said in a social media post, sharing images of the small rubber objectA sharp-toothed, scaly surprise gave some people walking on a Massachusetts trail quite a fright, officials said Tuesday.

It all played out at Deer Jump Reservation, which is along the Merrimack River, Andover Animal Control said in a social media post, sharing images of the small rubber object. Three officers were called out by the group who spotted the toy:"Nervous to get too close, they described what they were able to see before we ventured in."

"We retrieved and removed the toy to prevent others from having mini panic attacks while walking the trails, however this is a FABULOUS reminder as to why you should always keep your dog leashed," the post said.
