Hi
we live in steelpoort which is pretty much in the middle of no where. our residence is a few houses with electric fencing around and the wildlife like baboons, duikers and snakes venture into our gardens often.
But here is a python, I suspect he must have been living here quite a while, but never been caught. Once he got caught under the electric fencing because of his big belly and when some came to rescue him, he spit up 2 cats! he got free alive and last week some children came across him swallowing their dog - a labrador cross! he spit it out again and went into a field between the houses. Now we suspect it was him who ate our 2 cats who went missing and numerous other people's. some one found their jack russel all wet and slimy and terrified on their doorstep with a few bitemarks to his head, he died the next day.
He lives practically next to my house and I am so scared some one will kill it. I've never seen him, but suspect he must be quite a big guy! the ppl here are terrified of snakes and will certainly harm it.
Can some one not maybe come to catch and relocate it?
