Well If true the father Is lucky he checked on his son when he did a python that size would have no problem eating a toddler
hmm - there is a link to Bid to keep snake school open - Yahoo!7 News Video
hmm... I've already discussed this isue on another site>RedTailBoa. Our verdict is that a BP (ball python) wouldn't just turn up in a building and randomly attack a kid. If it was threatened it would roll up into a ball (hence BALL python) and anyway it was said that it was an 'escaped pet' so if it was hungry wouldnt it be more likely to be sniffing out rodents than people? Pythons to prefer the smell of a mouse or rat than to a child. There are various stories of this on the net and they all say different things. Two that I read (not including the Yahoo 7) is that they lived in an apartment building. So this snake would have had to travel up the stairs without being seen by ONE person!!!!
i'M NOT SAYING IT ISN'T TRUE- i'm saying that it may have been exaggerated a bit to get more attention.
Waterrat - that is just nuts! It would take probably four adults to control a python of that size. It makes you wonder what, apart from fresh air, is going through the minds of this kids parents.
