A three metre python has been caught in a rubber plantation in Chalong.

 

Staff members of the Chalong Municipality were notified from locals that a python had been found in a rubber plantation yesterday.

 

They tried to catch it using a rope lasso but the snake headed for a nearby tree. After a few attempts the team finally captured the elusive snake with nobody hurt in the process.

Don't tell the Chinese, they are pissed off enough already! Revenue may be lost.

Feed the dog to the sake and it will be happy again

Great stuff, the big fella's been let go away from humans and unharmed, good story.

It's not the pythons you have to worry about on the rubber plantations it's the cobras. Release the python where you found it. No need to worry.

Make sure the snake is dead before attempting to feed it to the dog or the dog will be a likely meal for the python!

I'd lay money on that fellow being closer to 4 meters than 3.

The girth also suggests a larger snake.

It would be nice to know where in my suburb of Chalong this was.
