The Krakow Society for the Protection of Animals shared details of the incident to their Facebook page on Wednesday.
In it they described a phone conversation with a startled local who reported a creature sitting in a tree for a number of days.

Having suspected an April fool’s day prank, the group eventually went out on foot to investigate, and discovered the culprit was not a dangerous animal, but a croissant.
