BETONG: A python had a sumptious meal consisting of a chicken before it was discovered by a homeowner at Taman Paya Udak here.
The reptile was spotted at around 1.57pm on Sunday (May 8) and the Civil Defence Force (APM) was called to the location.
“Three APM members went to the location after being informed about the presence of the reptile.
“The python, measuring about six feet in length, was caught some 24 minutes later,” said Betong District APM officer Lt (APM) Desem Samuel.
The snake was later released back to the wild and far from the residential area.
