When contacted, the Animal Concerns Research and Education Society said the python was moving sluggishly as it had just eaten. As the python’s actions had frightened a group of about 20 people who had gathered, Mr Yeo helped direct traffic from the road while his 33-year-old son called the police, who arrived within minutes.Acres said on April 28 that it dispatched a team to rescue the snake after it received a call from the police on the night of April 27.

“Snakes are generally shy animals,” said Mr Balakrishnan. “In most cases, bite incidents involving people occur when people provoke or try to harm or capture the snake themselves. If you let the snake be, it will go about its own business.”
