Now, I know we've all heard of people being eaten by snakes & I bet most of us have said, 'If a snake tried to eat me, I'd blah, blah, blah & get away.'
Well, this is a Python & they're extremely aggressive & have a few teeth that they use to hold their prey while they wrap around them & then constrict.
Could you get away if this one bit you & held on with it's 'few teeth?'
(Note: The wires are 10 inches apart.)
Variations: Different versions of the e-mailed text accompanying these photos claim the snake pictured was found "near Jebel Ali, Iraq" (Jebel Ali is actually a port town in the United Arab Emirates, not Iraq); at the "ExxonMobil compound in Luanda, Angola," in South Africa; by an "Australian sheep farmer," and by "a sheep farmer in Alton, Illinois."
Origins: The photographs displayed above originated with the Silent Valley Game Ranch in South Africa, as they confirmed informed in response to our inquiry:
The snake had eaten an impala ewe and was trying to go through the electric fence when it was killed by the electric fence. The pictures were taken on Silent Valley Ranch in the Waterberg mountains of South Africa. If you go to the site you will see the images of the impala that was removed from the python's stomach.
Additional pictures appear on the Silent Valley Ranch's web site, which describes them as picturing an African rock python:
The Rock python is Africa's largest snake. The rock python eats mammals and birds.
Lays up to 100 eggs about the size of a tennis ball in antbear (Aardvark) holes, hollow tree or similar suitable place. The female coils herself around the eggs to protect them.
The snake in this picture had eaten a full grown Impala ewe and, sadly, caught itself in an electric fence.
Over four metres in length, this was a large specimen.
When the python was skinned we found a full grown Impala ewe had just been swallowed.
The python kills its prey by coiling itself around the animal and constricting it. When the animal is dead the python swallows it normally head first.Having swallowed its prey, the snake will find an abandoned burrow or hollow tree in which to hide and digest its meal.
A python's bite is not poisonous but would be very painful.

Python in the Fence

When I was working on Deadly Kingdom, I looked into a story that sounds a lot like the one you mention about the child eaten in the wild; it turned out to be unverifiable and, as I recall, began to look a lot like folklore the further I tracked it back. I don't know a specific story like the other one you mention, but it doesn't sound plausible to me because big constrictors generally don't hunt that way. They normally ambush the prey and kill it where it is. Moving it before it's dead would leave a much great possibility of the snake getting hurt as it splits its resources between locomotion and constriction.
There are, in fact, many other tales of people eaten by big constrictors in the wild, but I couldn't find any that led back to specific, verifiable reports with names and dates. That doesn't prove them false, but, considering how much false lore I encounter about animals of all kinds, I choose to regard those reports are unlikely until I come across firmer evidence.
I can definitely say that the amethystine python has attacked children in the wild, and that at least five constrictor species have actually killed people in captive situations. Beyond that, my mind is open, but so far my files are empty.
One interesting fact that emerges from captive attacks is that snakes seem not to eat people, even after killing them, even when they are hungry, even when they have the opportunity. News reports are often reticent about gruesome details, but so far I haven't been able to document a case of a human actually eaten by a snake, even though there are cases in which hours elapsed between the killing and the discovery of it. (I should note that I came across many stories of man-eating that turned out to be internet hoaxes and the like.) I don't know why this should be the case, since most other large meat-eating animals are willing to take humans when they get hungry enough. One possibility is that they don't like the taste or smell of us. In the wild, they have opportunities to smell many kinds of animals small enough to prey on. Presumably they attack the ones that seem most edible and least dangerous. In captivity, they are exposed to a very limited set of stimuli, and I suggest that they sometimes exercise their hunting instincts even if the victim is not, after all, palatable.
