Chonburi city residents liberate the abused python Monday night.

 

CHONBURI — An unidentified man sought vengeance against a python Monday night by tying it to his motorcycle and dragging it through a soi in Chonburi city.

 

Oraphan Suphon said he noticed the man riding the motorcycle with the five-meter snake’s head lashed to it at about 9:30pm in Soi Phet Ban Suan.

Was it a giant python before it ate the ducks, or only afterwards?

[NeilSA1]

So stupid. The snake fed itself as nature intended.  

Who benefits from the suffering? Will this now become this man's answer in future, to anything or anyone who frustrates him?

The man told Oraphan he was seeking epic revenge torn from the Iliad because he believed the serpent had twice eaten his ducks.

 

Could it really be possible that Somchai from Chonburi has been reading Homer?

You think you've heard it all when it comes to snake stories in Thailand , I am sure the snake learned his lesson now , no more ducks on the diet, try dogs instead. .

Just imagine a python of 5 meters plus, how many years it needed to reach this size.

This python is properly 30 – 35 years old and had survived in a animal unfriendly environment like Thailand. All the rice fields get polluted every year with more and more pesticides and flooded with water. The natural environment of forests get deforested and Somchai let his ducks running free. For this python it was an invitation to perfect meal.

 

Now the question is, what will the police do?

They will looking for this guy or keep it for good then it was not a Soi dog.

 

Just remember, the police officer who has shot two Soi dogs because they have bitten his wife and kid. He had to pay 40000B or 2 years imprisonment for animal torture and that for some rabies infected dogs sleeping in front of a 7/11.

 

This double standard makes me shake my head every time.

Well, that was a bit stupid. He could have sold the snake to the Chinese who pay well for whole snakes especially venomous ones to make into snake wine which is supposed to have magical properties.

What a freak.....snakes are natural born killers and they are feeding themselves.

It's a python.  No points for "venomous."  

[ChoakMyDee]

I hope he killed it after he tortured it. I wouldn't want that snake slithering around pissed off.

[JGV]

This man is quite sick mentally and should be sectioned to a mental health facility because he is a danger to others

[xtrnuno41]

Just start a bbq and eat it. Think its good meat. Torture makes no sense.

Wonder what they do with all those pythons in the USA (Glades), as they are a pest there

[onemorechang]

i wonder if the snake had

got into a locals house and killed a child.

Would you lot be shouting so loud  now.

TIT,  up to them.

But,   it all  just don't  add up,    why not kill the snake and sell it,    the skin

must have been worth more than the cost of the  duck dinner.

Or was it typical blind rage and stupidity ?

who knows,   bunch of crazies  some times.

 

Hope the snake recovered     but doubt if it has.

I have a natural revulsion to snakes, but torturing any living thing is just sick.  

[HomeinThailand]

The snake did what is natural to the snake, it ate.  So what?  No reason for what he did to the snake.  None.
