Electric Fence verses Python

[crawfish]

Seems a sheep farmer was puzzled about the disappearance of some sheep on his farm. After a few weeks the farmer decided to put up an electric fence. About a week later, this is what he found!

Now, I know we've all heard of people being eaten by snakes & I bet most of us have said, 'If a snake tried to eat me, I'd blah, blah, blah & get away.' Well, this is a Python & they're extremely aggressive & have a few teeth that they use to hold their prey while they wrap around them & then constrict. Could you get away if this one bit you & held on with it's 'few teeth?'

(Note: The wires are 10 inches apart.)

The thing about those teeth is their direction. Once they get on you, good luck prying them off one by one with a set of heavy duty pliers!

If that snake tried to get me, I'd scream like a little girl and look for someone to toss in front of it so I could get away.

Uuummm, no, few folks would be able to get away from that thing. Hell, it looks like it's already swallowed somebody... if you look at its midsection.:laugh:

I wonder how many volts the fence was juiced up to. Your average dog fence wouldn't stop that thing. 220 Maybe!!

I saw my first big Cottonmouth of the spring yesterday. He was crawling on top of a beaver dam. He looked to be about 5 inches in diameter and maybe 4 feet long; a very scary looking creature.

I hope I never, ever see anything similar to THAT monster! His face is fit for a horror movie! One of the gory ones! :laugh:
