Keeper bitten at Australian Reptile Park [Graphic]

[Scutellatus]

A little old but a decent bite.
The keeper was bitten by a 5.28m Reticulated Python.
Note to self: NEVER PULL AWAY!

Nah mate that's a little nibble,a reticulated python is the biggest snake in the world and can eat humans.Imagine the damage if she was serious ?

I'd class that as a serious bite if one of my Ants did it lol

It definitely pales in comparison to the last Reticulated bite we saw on here. I think she was more so giving him a kiss on the hand.

Hah, missed the part of the story where it was a Retic. So just a love bite then.

It was a very little bite. Monster, as the article said, is pretty docile, though she gets really energetic with handling (like all retics). She doesn't usually bite, but they have a really strong feeding reflex and could easily mistake a keeper going into the cage as feeding time. You can tell how placid she really is by Googling the pictures of the weighings they do, and comparing the hold they had on Atomic Betty (the last retic) and the current one.
