KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 26 (Reuters Life!) - Guard dogs protecting a fruit orchard in Malaysia have met their match -- a 7.1-metre-long (23-ft-long) python that swallowed at least 11 hounds before it was finally discovered by villagers.I was shocked to see such a huge python," orchard-keeper Ali Yusof told the New Straits Times in an article published beneath a picture of the captured snake, which was almost long enough to span the width of a tennis court and as thick as a tree trunk.
Villagers did not harm the snake, which was tied to a tree then handed to wildlife officials, the paper said on Friday.
I've said it before...AND I'll say it again...they are ALL copper-headed rattle moccasins. I know snakes are good for some things, but IMO, the only good snake is a DEAD snake.
Here's to it and here's to it again...if you get to it and don't do it...may you never get to it again!

What's really scary is that, when I was living in South Florida, folks in the Everglades had begun to find some pretty big pythons living wild out in the wetlands. Seems people who had them as pets released them into the 'Glades and now they're thriving there. Scary.
