A:
Finding a net that's been untouched in a park for over two years can be intriguing. However, before you consider claiming it, it's important to think about the legal and ethical aspects.
Items left in public parks may still be someone's property or could belong to the park itself. Taking the net without permission might be considered inappropriate or even unlawful in some areas.
It would be a good idea to contact the park authorities or local officials to report the net. They can guide you on the proper steps to take and let you know if it's permissible to claim it.
