It is not the same thing as buying a dog , there is a reason why one is regarded as domesticated and the other wild and you should check the number of people , especially. children , that otherwise mild dogs have killed
Look from the looks here, these people have been rearing these snakes for long. And they know how to maintain it.

Pythons don't get aggressive unless hungry. Even in the wild, you can easily pick a grown python and move it to another location with it even constructing you.

That is a python now if it were an anaconda, it would have been a different story

Who says pythons aren't aggressive , probably a rock python but definitely not an Indian python.
I am telling you than pythons are among the most gentle reptiles. They are not likely to attack you.

That's a fact

Yes! It looks that way. Do you think it has to be man-sized before it can constrict the baby?

snakes don't kill for fun. They kill when threatened. Pythons don't constrict when threatened, they have a painful bite and that's all.

How can that kid threaten that snake?

Danger to humans
Attacks on humans are rare, but this
species has been responsible for several
human fatalities, in both the wild and
captivity. They are among the few snakes
that have been fairly reliably reported to
eat people, although only a few cases of the
snake actually eating (rather than just
killing) a human appear to be
authenticated:
Two incidents, apparently in early 20th
century Indonesia: On Salibabu, a 14-
year-old boy was killed and supposedly
eaten by a specimen 5.17 m (c.17 ft) in
length. Another incident involved an
adult woman reputedly eaten by a "large
reticulated python", but few details are
known.[16]
Franz Werner reported a case from
Burma occurring either in the early 1910s
or in 1927.[9] A jeweller named Maung
Chit Chine, who went hunting with his
friends, was apparently eaten by a 6 m
(20 ft.) specimen after he sought shelter
from a rainstorm in or under a tree.
Supposedly, he was swallowed feet-first,
contrary to normal snake behavior, but
perhaps the easiest way for a snake to
actually swallow a human.[17]
In 1932, Frank Buck wrote about a
teenage boy who was eaten by a pet 25 ft
(7.6 m). reticulated python in the
Philippines. According to Buck, the
python escaped, and when it was found,
a human child's shape was recognised
inside the snake. It turned out to be the
son of the snake's owner.[9]
Among a small group of Agta negritos in
the Philipppines, six deaths by python
have been documented within a period
of 40 years, plus one who died later of an
infected bite.[15]
On September 4, 1995, Ee Heng Chuan,
a 29-year-old rubber tapper from the
southern Malaysian state of Johor, was
killed by a large reticulated python. The
victim had apparently been caught
unaware and was squeezed to death. The
snake had coiled around the lifeless body
with the victim's head gripped in its jaws
when it was stumbled upon by the
victim's brother. The python, measuring
23 ft (7.0 m) long and weighing more
than 300 lb, was killed soon after by the
arriving police, who required four shots
to bring it down.[9]
According to Mark Auliya, the corpse of
32-year-old Mangyan, Lantod Gumiliu,
was recovered from the belly of a 7 m (23
ft) reticulated python on Mindoro,
probably in January, 1998.[14]
On October 23, 2008, a 25-year-old
Virginia Beach, Virginia woman,
Amanda Ruth Black, appeared to have
been killed by a 13-foot (4.0 m) pet
reticulated python. The apparent cause
of death was asphyxiation. The snake
was later found in the bedroom in an
agitated state.[18]
On January 21, 2009, a 3-year-old Las
Vegas boy was wrapped by an 18-foot
(5.5 m) pet reticulated python, turning
blue. The boy's mother, who had been
babysitting the python on behalf of a
friend, rescued the toddler by gashing
the python with a knife. The snake was
later euthanised because of its fatal
wounds.[19]
Considering the known maximum prey
size, it is technically possible for a full-
grown specimen to open its jaws wide
enough to swallow a human child,
teenager, or even an adult, although the
flaring shoulders of Homo sapiens could
pose a problem for a snake with
insufficient size. The victim would almost
certainly be dead by the time the snake
started swallowing.

Those were snakes that grew up in the wild and lawd knows their atitude at that instant.

Should we also bring up the number of times a pack of wild dogs have killed and eaten an human being?

Please check up on wild dogs and see

Thank you for validating my stance as regards this issue.
Dogs are widely regarded domestic while snakes, even in captivity or trained are still considered dangerous and wild.
