After a long, miserable day at work, I got home, got undressed and just wanted to relax.
First, a quick check of the animals.
Bummer, my female Scrub Python had emptied out, impartial slough and snapped her globe.
(Not what I needed aft my day)
Now, generally she's well behaved, (at worst, throws a coupe of bluff shots while she's in her cage) but at 4.5m, I always have my guard up around her or her mate.
Today, I opened her door and she dived under the door and rushed me. I've jumped back 4 ft, run out of room and she snagged me.
At this stage I must state that I'm only wearing my boxers. The old fella felt a bit of movement and the big girl has taken a mouth full of my pants.
After restraining her, and regaining my composure. I've walk outside to get the Mrs to get me another pair of pants, and help me put them on after taking off the pair that was currently engaged in a game of tug o' war.
It took me quite some time to get her off my arm
and she definitely wasn't giving up her prize.
Even after she went in the bin proudly displaying what she had stolen.
In the end, I fought it off her as I didn't want her to swallow it.
I fully know how lucky I am, and the implications if I had 1cm less room to jump back.
He's a pic of her accuracy, pretty good considering it was a small target.
What incidents have you had that have nearly needed severe surgery to maintain your better functioning?
