Brave Africans catch a python "Live Bait"

Brave Africans catch a python "Live Bait" → In order to find food, the men of one African tribe use a very original, but very risky way to hunt for python. They catch the snake with human bait. These brave men put their lives in danger not for the sake of entertainment, but in order to feed their tribe, for they do not foresee other food in the near future.

Having found a hole in the mountains, where the python lies on its laid eggs, the hunters of the tribe prepare one of them for the live bait. One of his hands is wrapped around him with a sturdy buffalo hide. This should prevent a man from sharp snake teeth.

In order to make it easier to move in a narrow maze, the entire human body is coated with a special ointment. When all this is done, the hunter goes to a meeting with a python, who lurks in the depths of the hole, which can reach 10 meters.

Worth noting that the serpent perfectly sees in the dark. Rather, he has infrared vision. The man is warm, so the snake, who saw the "food", which itself descended to him, is preparing to throw.

And here, in order to confuse the snake and see something for himself, the hunter lights the branches. When burning branches emit heat, which is much stronger than human. This is what the snake is misleading.

The serpent, coiled in rings, lies on the eggs (in the clutch, usually not less than 100 pieces). And here snakes pounce on lunch ...

However, the clever guy puts a snake in his hand, wrapped in the skin of a buffalo. While the disoriented python is trying to bite through the skin, the hunter deftly blocks the snake's esophagus with his free hand.

And how to get out with a six-meter python in his hand from a narrow hole?

To do this, at the entrance to the hole all this time hungry comrades of the hunter are on duty. Their main task is the ability to quickly pull their comrade with the loot to the surface. 

The hunter, holding the snake by the throat, appears on the surface.

If the snake cannot resist much underground, then a real battle begins on the surface.

The hunters should: one - press the snake's head with a spear to the ground, the second - hold the tail, well, the hunter himself cuts the snake's throat, trying not to damage the skin (it can be sold).

The battle is over. One of the assistants climbs into the burrow and takes away the remaining eggs without guarding. If they cook on the fire, they become a real delicacy.

When hunters are loaded with loot, they appear in the village - they are met like real heroes.
