Seriously? A Python in a Bathroom?!
Right, lets just unpack this for a moment. An Australian resident – an Australian resident, people! – called someone because a snake decided to take up residence in their bathroom. A carpet python. Not some tiny, harmless garter snake. A CARPET PYTHON. These things can get massive, folks. They’re not exactly subtle houseguests. And apparently, this is considered a crisis worthy of a late-night call?
Honestly, Im starting to suspect that people just enjoy generating drama now. Did they try looking before dialing for professional assistance? Did they consider the possibility that maybe, just maybe, opening the bathroom door and calmly assessing the situation might be a reasonable first step? No, apparently not. It’s straight to snake-catcher emergency services.
And bless the poor snake catcher who had to answer this call at an ungodly hour! Theyre heroes, I suppose, rescuing people from their own lack of common sense. Meanwhile, the python is probably thinking, “Seriously? Humans and their ridiculous panic!”
I’m not saying snakes arent a bit startling – they are. But a little self-sufficiency and a dash of rational thought might prevent these utterly unnecessary disturbances to wildlife (and snake catchers) in the future. Maybe invest in some preventative measures instead of summoning an expert every time a reptile wanders into your space. Just a thought.
