A 45-year-old mother was discovered dead inside a reticulated python in South Sulawesi province, marking the fifth recorded fatal incident involving pythons in Indonesia since 2017. The tragic discovery underscores the ongoing dangers posed by these large constrictors in rural areas where human and animal habitats overlap. Reticulated pythons, which can exceed 20 feet in length, remain a significant threat to communities across Indonesia and Southeast Asia where they are native.
