Giant python hisses at motorists and shows who's the boss of Woodlands Checkpoint

When you're a giant python slithering on the road, passing vehicles would naturally slow down and avoid any danger. Such was the case for a python spotted near Woodlands Checkpoint; the snake brazenly crossed the road and hissed at any vehicle that blocked its way. A video of the incident has since gone viral both on TikTok and Facebook, garnering mixed responses among netizens. https://www.tiktok.com/@johnmauabg/video/7137566361873567002 At the start of the video, the python was making its way across the road while onlookers watched in anticipation nearby. A white Honda Vezel passed by, and the python snapped at it in anger; its mouth opened fully to intimidate the target.

As the truck passed, the python snapped at the wheel in another attempt to show everyone who was the boss.

According to mypetzone.com, snake fangs can puncture tires and cause a 'pseudobite when changing or repairing the same tire'. Meanwhile, netizens pointed out that the snake was just trying to cross the checkpoint before the Friday crowd. A more logical answer to the python attacking a lorry was that it sensed heat coming from the vehicle. Hopefully, the python was able to cross the road safely without endangering others. /TISG Want to see other wildlife creatures taking on vehicles?
