When She Woke Up, She Was Surprised To See A 5-Meter Snake Beside Her Bed. Where Did It Come From? Everyone Should Be Careful At Home

A large snake that had been residing in the roof of an Australian home for a decade attempted to move into the master bedroom.

Trina Hibberd, of Mission Beach in Queensland, discovered on Monday that the 5.2-meter scrub python named Monty had stretched from her lounge room to her bedroom.

Monty managed to switch on a light and knock over a lamp before snake catcher Dave Goodwin arrived.

Mr. Goodwin coaxed the snake to coil around his forearm before capturing it in a plastic home-brewing jug. He told the BBC that the 40-kilogram snake was ‘squeezing [his] arm to death’ before he transferred it into the container.

‘When you approach them, they emit this deep, guttural sound in their throat, which essentially means, “Don’t come near me”,’ he said.

To entice the snake to grasp his arm, Mr. Goodwin initially gripped it near the head with a pair of tongs.
