This snake was killed by just a single man with cutlass!! Seriously! I think some men got balls!! Right there and then, he sold the snake for 10k! in a very short interview i asked the man how he managed to kill a snake as big as this all alone? He said thats what he does for a living! He kills bigger snakes like this on daily basis! See pics Below!

Not exactly the toughest thing to do, when you consider the snake is non venomous and equally harmless.

A python is not harmless, a snake that can swallow a whole human being or an antelope.

It's becoming an embarrassment how we go about cooking and eating everything simply because we are hungry ,illiterate and backward.

This is absurd and the Government need to wake up to her responsibilities of not just protecting the people but species that are clearly endangered species.

You talking about the same government that don't give a blooming s.hit about their citizens?

have we sat down to consider why repiles and sort of animals are leaving their original abode and migrating into ours might be the singular fact that our activities could be responsible for all this. Example could be the recent deforestation and depletion of forest by the Dangote group in the free trade zone, where heavy machines are employed day and night to clear open virgin forest for the soul purpose of citing a refinery, tell me where do this poor creatures go.
This is just a food for thought of man continued arrogance and lack of respect for nature.


So we should let wild animals roam about while we pay through our noses for fuel?

I know mine might be a minority opinion,but this is a rich diversity that has just been killed.
If this snake had been caught alive or even tracked and studied,it would have fetched 100x the amount it was sold for.
In other places, rare sizes of snakes like this would be a subject of wide interest and studies by snake experts who would even come from far and wide,earning us much needed foreign exchange.
But here,it has ended in somebody's pot of soup and a mere N10k when it cud have fetched good dollars.

Abeg make them study the snake for their countries. If that's the only way to earn foreign exchange, we no want. Nigeria snakes are bad. If this snake meet u for house u think say u go come NL dey talk rubbish. Snake shud go into extinct let our children read them up in book.

You wouldn't have said that if this snake had killed any of your loved ones. Any animal that can EASILY kill a human should be destroyed IMMEDIATELY. At least abroad they have antivenom and immediate evacuation. In Naija, you are on your own o.

Like someone rightly wrote, who should the snake killer have called to capture the python at that moment....for research and study? I watch animal documentaries a lot and I don't think a python is a snake to play with wen it is not in a cage possibly in a zoological garden. It is fast and constricts with dexterity. The result is death of the victim. On the other hand, those who wrote in support of the preservation of these species were not wrong, except that our government has not really provided the necessary institutions and facilities for such. Overseas, these are available and that is the reason why a case like this can end the snake killer in a court of law.

I long for the day that I will see a snake and have the balls to kill it.
That day is still long off.
For now anytime I see one, I take off in the opposite direction.
These snakes ain't loyal.

You do raise some very transient points.

We really a killing Mother Earth with our indifference to ecological concerns.

But we're already suffering the consequences as can be seen in the increasing rate and destructiveness of natural disasters like floods, tsunamis, volcanoes, tornadoes and earthquakes.

So we should kill all the dangerous animals? Even dogs are dangerous, its when these snakes get close to extinction that people will see the damage they are doing.
