What we put up with!!

[oldfella]

So you come home from a hard day at the office and what do you find.............A 7 foot python crawling around your front lawn!!

 

[oldfella]

So what to do??

I captured this beauty and put him up overnight at my place. Took him for a sightseeing ride to the national park about 5 miles from home and released him into the wild where it belonged. No houses, no people.

He will be happier out there!

 

[MAINEVENT]

HOLY CRAP! You wouldn't even find me in the same state or country if i saw that thing on my lawn!

 

[edge250]

much respect for not killing it, to many people run into things like this and without thought just kill them. good choice, beautiful snake..... i woulda pissed myself and ran like a girl

 

[Big A]

I would have run screaming! And you want me to come up there???? Uhuh! No snakes here and I like it!

yea that is the real reason I caught it to relocate it. Someone in the hood would have taken tom it with a shovel. it is not a dangerous snake by any means. I have had to deal with snakes in my old gym out west of where we live now. it was an eastern brown. Very dangerous, one of the most venomous snakes in the world. I also caught it and relased it to the wild away from civilisation. He came in for a workout but didn't want to pay, so I threw him out. The nerve of some eh! No need to kill these things if you don't have to. All snakes here in Oz are on the protected species list. AS for my house guest there is no way I could bring myself to killing such a beautiful animal!! NO WAY!

Even though I don't know that snake personally, thanks for not killing it.
I love snakes. when I was a kid I had a miniture reptile zoo in my back
yard. Had alot of watersnakes behind my house in this swamp. They
weren't poisnous but had a nasty disposition. I know what you mean about
thoughs brown snakes, very dangerous and plentifull down there I read.

Beautiful creature actually. Especially in a photo and not real time

 

[lycan]

Oldfella, just wanted to " Thank you " for not killing the snake. Most people would have killed it whether it was venomous or not. My hobby is venomous snakes, have about 40, and they are some of the most docile creatures you will ever find. Most people fear what they don`t understand. Thanks again for doing the right thing.

[Jarconis]

[buffbabeca]

im with main and edge i would have been hiding....

 

[LEX]

at least the mice are gone!

 

[luckyone]

Yikes!! I grew up with gart5er snakes and milk snakes in my backyard and they made great pets. But never came across anything that big!! Don't kill them unless they try to kill you first.

your brother in Christ,

Lucky

NOW THAT'S A GOOD PICTURE!

PRETTY DAMN COOL THE WAY YOU HANDLED IT TOO. I CAN SEE RETURNING A SNAKE LIKE THAT TO A SAFE PLACE.

WE GET RATTLESNAKES HERE....ONE OF THOSE EVER SHOWS UP IN THE YARD...HE GETS THE BIRDSHOT. I DON'T KILL BULLSNAKES AND SMALL GARDEN SNAKES THOUGH.

 

[HUTCH]

I would shit myself for sure

 

[Flex4777]

That is a beautiful snake!

 

[Momma Hutch]

First thing I would say is "OH HAYL NO!" But Oldfella good photography! You have more ballz than a lot of people to take that pic!

Correct me if I'm wrong but from what I understand Australia is resident
to 10 of the most poisonous snakes in the world. Fierce snake being the
most venomous land snake. And that damn brown is up there too !!!!

 

[elings]

THATS GOOD YOU TOOK HIM TO THE PARK AND LET HIM GO A LONG WAYS FROM YOUR HOME. HE COULD OF HAD ONE OF YOUR DOGS FOR A SNACK.

 

[TooPowerful4u]

If its harmless thats one thing..... if that fucker is poisenous and can kill me or a loved one... you bet your ass hes dead
