A TOOGOOM family got an almighty shock recently when a giant carpet python fell out of their mango tree coiled around a large possum.
They then couldn’t believe their eyes as the snake dislocated its jaws and started to swallow the possum whole.
Their efforts to free the possum had no impact on the snake as he completely ignored a few heavy smacks with a spade to go on eating.
In the end they let mother nature taker her course and later had the snake relocated.
