RAYONG: -- An 85-year-old Buddhist nun was attacked by a large python in a toilet at her temple in Rayong province on Sunday morning.

Monks and laymen saved Chin Darachan when she screamed for help at Wat Pak Praek in Moo 1 village in tambon Lahan of Rayong’s Pluak Daeng district.

 

The nun, who is just 120 centimetres tall, said when she went into the toilet the python bit her leg and wrapped itself around her legs.

 

After the attack she was taken to Pluak Daeng Hospital.

 

The snake was released into the wild.

I can only guess she was struggling and that caused the wound to be so nasty, probably she was desperately tearing the leg from the mouth of the python.

If nobody around to rescue her, she would have end up as dinner for the python. Normally this specie do not attack human may in confine space like the bathroom or toilet the snake felt threatened and attack , or may be the snake was hungry. Anybody knows more about snake please post your opinions we would like to know.

Lucky gal. This was not her time to go. Must have God on her side!
