Python shock in Sandakan

SANDAKAN: A resident had a shock to find a large python wrapped around a log close to her as she was harvesting tapioca within her compound at Kg Segaliud, Wednesday.

 The 1.5-metre long reptile, which weighed about 10kg, has since been captured by the Civil Defence Force and released into its natural habitat.
