Python captured in Pattaya restaurant

PATTAYA:-- A giant python wanting in on the Children’s Day fun scared kids and their parents at a central Pattaya restaurant.

 

Animal control officers arrived at the Dang-Dum restaurant on Central Road Soi 10 Jan. 13 to find the five-meter-long snake curled up in the back.

 

A few minutes later it was caught, bagged and taken away. No one was injured.

 

Authorities said they rushed extra quickly to the scene as small children out for Children’s Day would be an easy meal for a python of that size.

Snakes are a part of the culture of Thailand.

 

They should be respected as such.

There's a new tunnel.

There certainly doesn''t appear to be drains for it to use.

Most of the dogs hanging round restaurants belong to the owners.  I will not eat any place that puts my food in the vicinity of dogs.

Personally, I think every restaurant should have a pet snake. Much better than cats at keeping the rats out of the pantry, and they don't jump up on the counters. Safer for the humans than spreading rat poison all over the place. Greener all around. But 5 meters is a little excessive.

Every restaurant in Thailand is in the vicinity of dogs.
