Please cite your reference. I am interested to read up. Don't cook up stories and back them up with expletives. It shows you off as a person with rock-bottom gray matter. Shalom.

Yes. If you kill it, you will be required by tradition to do a befitting, human-type burial for it. No matter who you are.
But just pythons. There are several reasons for this tradition. One is, I think, that the pythons ensure that no one (especially small chilldren) are killed by other venomous snakes as the pythons eat these snakes hence protect the community.
