"....the house contained 140 snakes..."

None of us knows how we will cope with snakes until the moment arises, and then most of us find out that we do not do it very well.

I used to raise snakes. An 8 foot python is not that large, and if the woman was even a little bit aware, she could have gotten the snake off of her. My guess is she was out or already deceased before the snake got involved. They don’t generally constrict on necks - it’s usually ribcages, so the prey suffocates. And then it tries to eat the prey. No mention of that in the article.

Man slices his finger off after snake bite, then the doctor tells him it was unnecessary.

7 miles from home. A county Sheriff owned the house and most of the snakes.
