Updated : Jun 25, 2009
A 6ft snake, a dancing pole and frozen chicken feet are among the bizarre items left behind as students leave university halls for the summer.
Other items that made their way to lost and found were a giant white pet rabbit, some frozen chicken feet and a whip with a copy of the Karma Sutra.
The most common items that students forgot to take home were mobile phone chargers, text books, iPods, toothbrushes and shoes.
Student housing provider UNITE audited the lost and found booty from all their buildings, home to some 36,700 students, and said "the most weird and wonderful array of left behind items" were to be found.
Nathan Goddard, UNITE sales and Marketing Director, said: "After a year of working hard and playing hard, it is no surprise that students forget to pack everything at the end of term - and what they leave behind never fails to surprise us.
"From the risque to the ridiculous, we often wonder how these items make it into their rooms in the first place."
The ten most bizarre items: 1. 6ft snake; 2. A pole dancing pole; 3. Life-size skeleton; 4. A pair of budgies; 5. Giant white pet rabbit; 6.10ft inflatable outdoor pool filled with water; 7. Frozen chicken feet; 8. A whip and a copy of the Karma Sutra; 9. Scuba diving suit with air tank and flippers; 10. Full-sized air hockey table.
