looks to be a Python Molurus (Indian Rock Python). it's a 17year old, 12footer and characterized by the writer as "deadly"

anyway the big snake had a tumor in the mouth, had not eaten for an entire week, grown weak and lazy and zoo surgeons successfully operated earlier this month. i'm glad they helped the snake but i feel there are alotta mischaracterization in this story.

anyway read the story here: https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/other...ing/ar-AAsdQA9

OMG, an entire WEEK without food! Article says they force fed it for 10 days prior to surgery...the whole write-up is just confusing.

Language barrier?
Journalism is a dying art.

Hope the animal gets better.
