I have never and will never, support having a snake as a pet😠😠😠
An exotic animal lover was found dead by his mother after his pet python Tiny, wrapped itself around him. Babs narrated the story of the evening of her son’s death to court, saying that she was cooking dinner when she was interrupted by a crash in his bedroom. She found him face down on the floor and Tiny was missing from its vivarium. A postmortem revealed that Brandon’s lungs were four times heavier than would be expected and he had suffered pinpoint hemorrhages in one of his eyes – signs of asphyxia as well as recently fractured rib. Pathologist Dr. Adnan al-Badri said that"It’s possible that some sort of pressure was applied to the neck or chest that caused him asphyxiation however, there were no marks around his neck or chest."
Prof John Cooper, a vet and snake keeper, said that he too did not believe that Tiny had strangled Brandon or had been aggressive toward him. "The most likely scenario is that that Tiny was engaged with Brandon. I have no doubt she was coiling around him till at a point she either she took hold of him unexpectedly or trips him up and then took off maybe because of the shock of him falling or the shock of his reaction. Cooper said Brandon would have known how to unwrap a python that had coiled around him, explaining that the trick was to start with the tail. He said it was uncommon for snakes in captivity to cause serious injuries but told the court that he himself had been struck in the eye by an African rock python. He said Tiny had struck out at him “defensively” as he put it back in its vivarium after examining the snake.He said he believed that in one “moment of peace” Brandon was “communing” with the snake and it “went wrong” for some reason.
