A man pulls a giant snake out of its den and captures it on camera, but the aggressive python retaliates with a series of attacks.
In the video, a professional wildlife photographer named Austin Stevens attempts to extract a massive South African python from its burrow.
After seizing the snake’s head and pulling it out, the man decided to take photos. This action irritated the python, which began to strike aggressively at him.
Despite the relentless bites from the enormous creature, Austin Stevens managed to evade the attacks without sustaining any injuries.
The South African python is the largest species of python in South Africa, with males weighing around 44 kg and measuring 4.25 meters in length, while females can weigh up to 55 kg and reach 5 meters in length. This species is featured in many folklore tales of the indigenous people of Africa.
They are hunted for their beautiful skin, which is used to make bags, shoes, and belts. The diet of this python includes small prey such as mice, birds, lizards, and monkeys, but larger individuals are capable of eating crocodiles.
Austin Stevens was born in Pretoria, South Africa. With a passion for photographing the world’s most dangerous snakes, he has often paid a heavy price for his hobby.
He even set a crazy record by locking himself in a cage with 36 different species of venomous snakes in Africa for 107 days.
