Hello myLotter!
I read a news in kompas.com about giant snake (phyton) in the big river in Kalimantan. I watched some movies about phyton and I do not imagine that this kind of monster are living in the river. You can search in google "Heboh Ular Raksasa Kalimantan" or "Big Giant Snake in Kalimantan". I'm not sure, it is real or not, but I think it is possible to the phyton live there because Kalimatan is like Brazil which has many big river and forest.
I'm afraid with snake and I can not see it actually. But this news is interesting and make me curious so that I pretend to see it hehehe. How about you? Do you afraid of snake?

I am not that afraid of snakes as I have had several close encounters in the past. But I am not brave enough to pick up a snake and put it on my body.
Giant snakes do exist deep in the jungle or deep underground caves. Fortunately there are not many of them. Because of their size many of these giants snakes do not move. They eat animlas or humans who happen to pass close by. As time passes dirt accumulates on their body and this leads to the growth of grass.
While clearing up an area in Kelantan with a bulldozer my friend accidentally cut such a snake into two. The work gang burned the body. One disbelieving person changed his mind when his path was blocked by a snake looking for water during one drought season in Negeri Sembilan. It was late at night and he estimated the size then to be about the size of a mature coconut trunk.
Pythons do not actually live in water, anacondas do.
all the best,

Hi, dik_an! I am afraid of snakes any kind, big or small. I know that there are many snakes in this world that are very big and huge. I know that if you get too close they may attack you or kill you! I wonder if this snake is as big as the Anaconda??? I sure would not want to see this type of snake on my life! I will leave this snake to the big guys!

Hello dik_an. Yes, I am very much terrified of snakes. I shudder just the thought of it. There was this time several years ago, I found a snake inside our home in one of our drawers. It was a kitchen drawer to be exact. I was getting some placemats from the drawer when I saw in a corner, a head of what I thought was a lizard. It didnt move so, I was curious. I was about to touch it when its head strike out. I was so scared that I let out a long scream. My dad and sister heard it and I told them about the so-called lizard that I just saw. My dad wouldnt believe me. He said that I was imagining things. I told him that lizards that act that way. So, that couldnt possibly be a lizard. He checked it out himself. When he saw it, he believed me and called the security guards in our village for help. I was in my sister's room shaking while she was excited to see it. When the guards came and saw the snake, they said that it was a phyton. It was small and thin. It doesnt look like a phyton to me. They killed the snake using a rolling pin. So, that was the end of the snake and hoepfully I wouldnt see one again.

Well, I am afraid to snake too. It is one of many dangerous animals. Of course, not all snakes are dangerous. But just beware of it. I personally don't want to endanger myself by approaching the snake. Who knows that the snake we approached is the dangerous one and contains a deadful poison.
