Anthonyoz:
phyton is a secrade animal we don't kill or eat phyton

Anthonyoz:
I'm at my own place ,

Why I thought of killing it is because am a Christian and phyton and snake are forbidden and sympolise evil ,

But been my custom we don't kill phyton it sacred and not aggressive ,so I followed my tradition.

BKayy:

Not everybody kill and eat python.
Since the OP said "sit at home" then it means that it was most probably in Igboland and more than 80% of Ndigbo don't kill or eat python.
Besides the title of thread clearly said "saved"

This is one of the things wrong with this forum and as well as Nigerians in general. If Nigerians ever considered Ndigbo as part of their country or this forum know anything about Igbo people, any time stories with pics of cooked python grace front page, they must include "GRAPHICS" as a way of warning Igbo people that might visit it.

But as Usual, Nigerians keep proving that they know absolutely NOTHING about Ndigbo

Generalwoodz:
Are you in Ogidi

Growing up in that eastern hinterland saw me and my friends play hide and seek with Eke idemili (python). This snake is gentle and would do everything it takes to stay out of harm's way. It is revered, worshipped and sacred.

It's virtually every where one turns. Under your bed, in the ceiling, under your table and boy ! I kid you not. These creepy creations are always in places unimaginable.

Sometimes in the night, As a boy (nwoke) hungrily waiting around the three stones supporting a Boiling pot, as mama puts all required ingredients to cook us AKPU and ofe onugbu. we would chat and discuss heartily how the day went... At some point, one would feel something cold rub, massage his Achilles heel which would give you a chilly sensation and you'd quickly scamper. when you go for the kerosene lantern to confirm what it is; you'd see the EKE in it's full glory slithering way like a visitor with abandon.

Till this day the custom is still respected.

Mrkumareze:
Nice one OP, tradition first. If not for Abakiliki boys, my village would have plenty of this ball python .. we don't kill it, infact it's a taboo to do so.. but Aba boys has slaughtered it to the level you hardly see python on the street

This afternoon Monday after taking my siesta thanks to the weekly sit at home that always give me the much needed rest ,I decided to take a walk at nearby farm observing nature , while receiving the fresh air and remembering my childhood memories of hunting grasshoppers , squirrel and birds, I smiled and thank the sit at home for giving me a break from day to day works .

As I was looking around I saw a fishing net probably trab so I decided to incept it ,then I saw this medium size phyton that has entangled around the net.

Nuttella:
Can someone tell me why this guy saved a pyton?

BKayy:

Do you know what else your Christian views forbid?
You.
Yes, your skin. Does the "curse of ham" according to your Christian views ring a bell?

It was the same view (Christian) they used to justify SLAVERY. According to them, you are the descendant of Ham (whatever that means).

See the way you subtly introduced tribalism and bigotry into this innocent thread.
