A call was made to local snake catcher Zam Paulik after a massive Southern African Python was spotted near a farm close to Windsor Dam recently.
Residents of the area were amazed and some fearful to see such a huge reptile.
Zam rushed to the scene and the ‘battle’ began with the 6.4-metre python…
He was bitten but eventually managed to get the snake under his control. A nonchalant Zam said he was fine after the bite was treated.

He released the python at Nambiti Game reserve, in conjunction with the chief warden, Jabulani, and with the help of Brandt Rozendal.
