Horror in Indonesia: Giant snake devours man with lively body!

Südost-Sulawesi, Indonesien - A terrifying incident in Indonesia has once again focused on the dangers of large pythons. A 61-year-old man was devoured by an 8.5 meter long Python in the province of Southeast Sulawesi as he fed his chickens. According to [Kosmo] (https://www.kosmo.at/python-schlingen-mann-village residential-oeffens-schlange-bei-bendigem-leib/), the snake first packed his leg, squeezed it down and then completely devoured it.

After the man did not return home, his relatives alerted the authorities. A search was initiated after its abandoned motorcycle was found on the roadside. Village residents later discovered the python with unnaturally bloated body near a garden hut. They opened the body of the snake and found the man's lifeless body, which was then handed over to his family.

fatal encounters with pythons

fatal attacks by giant snakes on humans are rare in Indonesia, but there have been documented cases in recent years. Experts emphasize that people do not belong to the natural prey scheme of the pythons. Nevertheless, such attacks, mostly in densely overgrown areas, can be triggered by unfortunate encounters. Local authorities advise caution in regions with dense vegetation and high grass. This also confirms another incident that was recently reported.

In a separate case, Kalempang, South Sulawesi, a 45-year-old multiple, Farida, was found dead in the stomach of a five-meter-long network python. She had been missing since Thursday evening. Her husband and villager started a search that finally led to the discovery of the snake. As reported [Stern] (https://www.stern.de/panorama/indonesien ---riesenschlange-feitst-45-jaehrige-mutter-von-vier-kinder-34781496.html), the villagers had found the python with a bloated stomach and then cut their stomach, where they discovered the head of the missing. This shows how quickly such terrible incidents can happen.

The network pythons typically feed on smaller animals and birds and humans are rarely attacked. Nevertheless, there have been several documented deaths from Pythons in Indonesia in recent years. Last year, villagers became aware of an eight meter long Python that had devoured a farmer. In the past, too, people were found dead in the stomachs of Pythons, like a 54-year-old woman in 2018 and a man in 2017.

increase of dangerous encounters

Another alarming event occurred when a 63-year-old Imam in Polewali Mandar was attacked by a more than five meter long python. He collected wood with his son and relatives when the snake suddenly struck and bite him into the leg. However, the Imam managed to free itself and kill the snake with a machete after attacking it. According to KURIER, such attacks have not become unusual in Indonesia in recent years, especially in the dense forests of the country, which is home to many large types of snake. Conservationists warn that dangerous encounters with these animals could increase because their habitat disappears from deforestation.

Such tragic incidents emphasize the importance of education and precautionary measures to avoid further encounters with these impressive, but also dangerous creatures.
