Rabbit-devouring snake caught in house at Pathum Thani
Suppose you have 23 rabbits in a cage at your house. The next day, 13 rabbits have disappeared and you have a full-fed snake 5 meters long richer. That happened to a resident in Pathum Thani province.
A giant Boa constrictor had come forward with great interest in the man's rabbits. When the owner saw the huge snake in his rabbit enclosure, he tried to drive it away with a large stick. When that failed, he decided to call the emergency services. They needed six strong guys to lift the animal and take it away.
The snake has been taken to a snake farm in the Si Mum Muang area and will later be released to its natural habitat in Khao Yai.
Editor: Have you ever had a visit from a snake in your garden or in your home in Thailand? And if so, how did you finally get rid of it?
In Bangkok I had a cobra in my garden three times. They have been helped to snake heaven by me. I don't run any risks with children in the house and garden. In Hua Hin, one cobra was killed by the guard of the moo. Two were picked up by a rescue team. A month ago I beheaded a poisonous snake unknown to me in the garden with my hoe that I brought from the Netherlands.
When the rainy season comes again, the snakes also come out of their (flooded) holes. So watch out!
Why do those snakes have to be killed right away. You are the guest.
Unfortunately, not all snakes have been made aware of the fact that they must stay away from guests…
Nothing dude, if you don't understand all snakes are dangerous, got very scared after a fatal bite inflicted on a friend of my stepson, were fishing, and friend had a great need to relieve, but as he after did not come back for a long time, they went looking for him, and found him dead, with trousers on his ankles, and pale, bitten by a snake.
Now I have had many visits at home from snakes from large to small, (fallow area around us with a lot of vegetation) and I bought a 5-prong fork at the hardware store (the kind they also use for fishing) attached to a long stick. , and stick them on the fork from a distance, be careful, they are super fast, then cut off the head, don't want him to come back a second time.
My Thai wife has no problem with that, but first runs away before I kill him.
Dear Editors.
I think everyone who lives in Thailand has had to deal with snakes.
What I have often mistaken is the speed with which they can strike.
In any case, put on glasses if you want to approach him, if it is a cobra, it will direct a poisonous roar at your eyes, which can be extremely annoying for the rest of your life when it gets into your eyes.
Don't try to argue with bystanders, many don't want you to kill him.
There are special hooks for sale that you can attach to a long stick to prick them so that they do not come loose.
Please note that it is very difficult to get through the skin, smash the head to make sure that the snake can no longer bite.
Bury him , my girlfriend is sure otherwise the family will look for the snake .
I live 4 high in the center of Pattaya, and even had a visit from a snake here.
I came back from shopping with my girlfriend, the maid was waiting for us half panicked,
In the apartment next to me where she was cleaning, there was a snake in the bed, which she discovered while changing the bed linen.
She tossed that beast on the terrace, sheets and all, but she took a picture of it with her phone before the serpent made its way to my ward.
I have a large corner terrace with about 40 large pots with trees and plants, so go and look there.
Never found or seen the snake, but my living pleasure had decreased quite a bit, not really relaxed sitting outside the first week.
Show the picture to some Thais, and they think it was a rat snake?
5 years ago we still had pieces of urban jungle here in the soi, now 6 hotels have been built in the soi so there is nothing left of them, so those animals are looking elsewhere.
Our house in Nongbualamphu is in the middle of the rice fields. Very nice and quiet, but we get a regular visit from snakes. And not just little tree snakes. The last time was several months ago.
Normal procedure :
1. My wife discovers a snake in the house and freaks out
2. The Phujai Ban (mayor) is called for help
3. Phujai Ban and his retinue (brother(s), sister(s) and other casual passers-by) arrive and assess the situation.
4. The snake is located
5. It is discussed what type of snake it is, how dangerous it is likely to be, who has ever been bitten by it in the past and how badly it ended.
6. Then it is decided who is to take the beast. So that is (usually) the person with the lowest social status. Or someone who is still indebted to the Phujai Ban.
7. Subsequently there is some mysterious chatter between them (it must be determined who gets the snake (because they never leave it behind).
8. After the beast has been driven out of its hiding place with a stick, with people in the area loudly encouraging and giving instructions to the serpent catcher, the beast is taken away.
9. The snake is killed by hitting it on the head a few times, and put in a bag, taken away and prepared for consumption (?).
10. The remaining attendees position themselves in the shade on a mat and the happy ending is celebrated while enjoying a bottle of Lao Khao.
Presumably this was the beast: http://www.thailandsnakes.com/venomous/front-fanged/malayan-krait-blue-krait-highly-toxic-venom/
The snakes (big and small) in my garden always go away by themselves.
Never killed one, neither did the scorpions.
A friend of mine from The Hague, Piet, lived in Thailand for many years (he died two years ago in his hometown of Pattaya) and every year he went to such a quack, and drank snake blood, and the heart, the snake was killed and hanged on the spot, cut open, blood captured in a glass with a little whiskey, add the heart, and drink it.
He said that he was never sick because of this act.
Now I don't know if it's still possible here and there, but yes everything is possible, haha whether bhuda is watching or not.
Many stories are exaggerated. in most cases the hose will drip off. Every snake is shy and disappears quickly. However, if you want a snake; grab or catch then the animal defends itself, I've never had to kill a snake either.
In the Netherlands I even sold snakes (no venomous snakes1).
Take a good look at the picture, would this snake have 13 rabbits in its belly? They must be very small.
This year we were sitting when a snake was suddenly called, my wife flies up with a large machete, mopeds with light turned out to be the snake of his 30 cm neighbor, grabbed it and released it again. she was teased afterwards with that cleaver she had to laugh about it herself later.
I have 2 Thai dogs that regularly bite snakes to death, I also live near the rice fields, they are the so-called rat snakes that come from the rice field, of course I don't know if they are poisonous, but the last one that killed them was more than 3 meters long and it was lying dead in the garden with half a meter of its tail bitten off. These dogs first drive the snake completely crazy by barking on one side and biting the snake every now and then, until they have driven it completely crazy , and then that snake is so tired that they can bite it behind its head and then quickly hit it back and forth with their own head until it can no longer bite and kill it and as soon as it stops moving they stop and do nothing more! !! Very good dogs, those Thai dogs, they normally don't hurt anyone, but snakes and other animals that come into the garden will!! Of course I don't know what happens when a Boa comes into the garden, but as far as I know snakes just leave when they see people because why would they use their poison on you they can't eat you so they just if possible let go.
