python’s just ignoring the floodwaters like it’s its chill spot

In his perspective his map just opened up and he’s exploring the new areas

Nope. Example 9,348,322 of why you should never swim in murky water.

I don't think that snake is looking for a snack at the moment.

Poor guy is tired.

Yes, he is looking for a dry place. I have lived through 2 floods and snakes would come inside not to bite you but because they were looking for a dry place.

If I jumped in that water, a python would be the least of my worries.

He's like "where is the land?" Poor thing.

They can climb really well. Probably will be better off than most animals with four legs.

I dated a girl in the Philippines for awhile, the first time I visited and met her family, her dad was late and came back with like a 10’ python and we ate it. Felt a little weird about it but I wanted to fit in. Wasn’t very good and kind of hurt my tummy

Nah, you're thinking of a crocodile, this one's those influencers looking for a quick sob story to post for the likes
In all reality though, that snake is probably just as affected by the flood as they are. It's looking for dry land to rest in, probably won't even bother with you all that much since we're too muscle-y and too big to properly hunt. As is with most ambush predators, we humans aren't usually worth the energy expenditure to eat. That being said, I certainly wouldn't want to be in a room with a starving animal, especially if I'm not experienced in handling them and I'm the only accessible piece of meat within slithering range

Me who seen snake: "alright well water cancelled for X time."

Friend an hour or two later about to go in...

"What. Snake? I didn't see any snake. Really? I just wanna go to my mom, check on my family."

u/CormoranNeoTropical 10h ago

That water is so nasty. I hope the snake is okay.

Does anyone here know what type of prey a constrictor this size eats? Is this snake going to be alright?
