  1. Daang the same thing happened to my friend and I. We were doing drugs all night and we noticed his 6ft python was gone, out of the cage! We were soo messed up trying to find this huge snake. It was in the neighbors back yard. we found it the next day. Good times.

  2. Have they tried contacting Samuel L Jackson🤣.

  3. It's a Monty Python. These are often left behind when the Flying Circus leaves town.

  4. It's illegal too..Protect your kids Houstonians… Call in Wildlife and Fisheries from the State

  5. These wild animals should be outlawed as pets. The last time it was a tiger roaming the neighborhood! What’s going on in Texas?!

  6. I like Gavin Newsome. Nice commercial.

  7. Lol imagine if all snakes could move as fast as Squirrels?

  8. are you sure its scary ??? to who?…the poor python is going to face 300million guns in america..and thats scary

  9. few babies were found missing later that week and they all can be found inside the snake's tummy

  10. Body heat cameras/goggles just after sundown might help you find it. Good luck.

  11. I cooked it with the puppy,kitten and baby that was inside😋.

  12. It escaped into the chamber of secrets.

  13. That is not a Burmese python. That is a Carpet python. His friend needs to study a little more before identifying something he's not sure about and cause unnecessary panic.

  14. Sub zero winters are just one more reason to love the Northwest!

  15.

  16. We've been living with these creatures for thousands of years. Chill

  17. A python is slithering free in the neighborhood. This is hilarious. Why people are allowed to keep exotic pets? 😂

  18. If it can swallow a man it can swallow a child

  19. That looks like my neighborhood. I really wish the “journalists” would have identified the subdivision. WORTHLESS. NO REAL INFORMATION.

  20. It's a snake big deal . Get over it.

  21. Comes on the news just to tell us he has no idea what's going on or where the snake is but it is able to swallow a child. Thanks 🤨

  22. Why are these creatures not banned!!!!!!

  23. hey all you thousands of reptile kooks with 9' pythons, take pic on a fence and you can make national news lol…

  24. Maybe it's there to eat all the drug dealers and thugs

  25. he can easy eat "s" size human alive

  26. dont be stupid… its 10'. and they exist on earth w/other animals. duh duh duh. you scared ignorant idiots… fwiw Australia has plenty dogs and plenty cats plenty koalas and plenty pythons duh duh duh

  27. exactly this size python , in malasia or indonassia 2 years ago eatn alive a older women , and people found it with a human inside near her home .

  28. Stephen Miller is just looking for a place to sleep and shed his skin in peace.

  29. Any "pet" that must be kept in a cage is NOT a "pet".
    These are not domesticated animals, so they should not be kept as pets to begin with.
    Dogs and cats,…. maybe a pot bellied pig,… those are pets.

    People who keep exotic animals are damned near always weirdos on top of all of that.

  30. What if it reproduces? 🤔😬

  31. You're in Texas, that snake is probably in someone's freezer and frying pan…

  32. Prolly under his bed by right now

  33. Some see a big snake, I see cowboy boots!
