Python squeezes boys arm

[bigguy]

Hugsta,

That is a very good point. I need help to remove 20kg Olives hanging onto my arms in feeding bites. I could not even imagine a 65kg snake hanging onto me :shock:

A dead weight is that heavy is hard enough to lift, but to lift, move and try and fight with it is a whole new ballgame. :shock:

What the heel would you keep a 15ft burm in? How could you possibly even imagine keeping such a large snake.
Just one question, could it have eaten the boy?

Regards Ether

That sucks for the kids and the parents should of feed it more

...could it have eaten the boy?

Regards Ether

proberly, depends on how many McHappy meals the boy ate a week.
Definatly could have killed him though.

I love the giants, that's our specialty. The snake could not have eaten the boy. Killed yes, eaten no. Chances are the snake would have sooner or later figured out the kid wasen't food and let him go. I've made this mistake with my Burms in the past.

For alittle FYI here's a great article on keeping Burmese Pythons by the man himself, Bob Clark. Enjoy.

We specialize in keeping giant pythons. Keeping giants isn't that hard so long as you know how to keep yourself safe. They can kill without ever meaning to. Chances are the Burm would have let go eventually, when it figured out the kid wasen't food. I've made similar mistakes with Burms in the past. The Burms could have killed the kid, but no eaten. There is no reports of Burmese Pythons attacking and eating people in wild.

To answer the rest of question, here's an article on keeping Burmese Pythons by Bob Clark.
