ANN/THE STAR – After a filling meal in the form of a large goat in a Malaysian village, a python became motionless, making it possible for the Civil Defence Force to catch the seven-metre-long reptile.
The hefty 140-kilogramme python was caught after it was found in a goat pen.
The Kubang Pasu Civil Defence Force said, in a statement yesterday, that it had received a report that there was a large python in a goat pen in Kampong Guar Batu Hitam in Kedah, Malaysia. “We received the report at 8.23am and reached the scene shortly after.
“There were four of us at the scene and we noticed the python had swallowed a goat that was in the pen near the complainant’s house. It did not take long for us to catch it,” the statement read. It took around 25 minutes to capture the python.
