Wouldnt you wonder?
 
Villagers in Malaysia have finally found out why 11 dogs guarding their fruit orchard disappeared - a 22-foot python had swallowed them.
"I was shocked to see such a huge python,'' orchard-keeper Ali Yusof said while being pictured with the snake, which was as thick as a tree trunk.
Villagers did not harm the snake, which was tied to a tree then handed to wildlife officials.


Wouldnt you think if you'd lost 11 dogs that was disappearing without a trace that something was hunting them? :D

I'm waiting for Garinda to reply to this thread , It would be interesting to know how many pairs of shoes or handbags could be made from such a beast ;)

imho there is absolutly no reason whatsoever for a snake to exist , kill em all :D

I'm not much afraid of snakes but that is too freaky. Then again, I would imagine Malaysia would be kinda used to large snakes eh?

Maybe they thought someone from another village was nicking their dogs? I'm presuming they didn't disappear in quick succession but that replacement dogs survived there for quite a while.

Its the bit about tying it to the tree - like how do you do that without being swallowed?

You'd think such a talented Python would have been snapped up by a stripper, to be used in her act.

Unless of course she also perfomed with dogs.

I think these folks should just protect their orchards and stuff by just using huge snakes thereby cutting out the middle-man (dog).:cool: Totally agree jen, plain daft to not figure this all out before losing 11 dogs.

I'd still be a little worried - I thought large snakes only ate approx. once every 12 months, they consume their prey whole then slowly digest it. Seems to me there might still be a few snakes still out there if 11 dogs have gone missing!!!
