ELECTRIC FENCE

DISCLAIMER:
This happened to a farmer in South Africa and NOT Homer Henke of Bethalto, Illinois as previously posted! My sincerest apologies to all concerned and especially to Mr. Henke.
*********

The farmer was puzzled about the disappearance of some sheep on his farm. After a few weeks, the farmer decided to put up an electric fence.

About a week later, this is what he found!









Now, I know we've all heard of people being eaten by snakes and I bet most of us have said, "If a snake tried to eat me, I'd blah, blah, blah and get away."


Well, this is a Python and they're extremely aggressive and have a few teeth that they use to hold their prey while they wrap around them and then constrict.

Could you get away if this one bit you and held on with it's "FEW TEETH?"

(Note: The wires are 10 inches apart.)

The farmer later killed the snake with a shot gun.
