Untamed & Uncut Credits - Albino Bp Attack?

Right now I'm watching Animal Planet's Untamed and Uncut, and in the credit I saw what looks like an albino bp that bit a child (who was holding it) on the hand.

To be honest I'm a bit lost on the fact that a show that shows stuff like bulls goring people to death would play something like a bp bite.

Haha I think that is stupid to put a bp bite on a show that is supposed to show "hardcore" animal attacks. Was it just a clip in the ending credits or an actual slot on the show?

It was in the beginning credits, which probably means, at some point in time it will make its way into an actual episode. It was very short, and was played towards the end so I didn't get the greatest look at the snake, but I think its safe to say its an albino ball python.

i bet the kid needed surgery:gj:

I finally found the footage, and its not a ball python, its an albino burmese python. Regardless though, I don't think it should have made the cut, its just not that gruesome imo.

Also, the mum was holding the snake.

Didin't ya know? BPs are the most dangerous snake there is! Despite not being venomous, a bite from one can kill in -10 seconds!

Oh noes!

Yeah. There was a little blood, but in NO way life-threatening! That baby python couldn't have even killed the girl, and wouldn't have got to because adults were there to help her.

after watching the vid all i have to say wow some people just love to blow things out of proportion...and i cant believe animal planet would talk bad about the snake like that, isnt the mission of animal planet to help inform people about animals but here in the vid all they did was just talk about how bad and agressive this animal is

Less than 10 years ago, that was their mission, but now they are all about entertainment.

very true i agree 100%...animal planet is like the mtv for animals now

wow, if a baby got bit by my bp, i wouldnt be calling animal plantet or even the news...its not that big of a deal! I would just kiss the little girls' finger and it would be all over! it probably didnt even hurt, she was just probably scared...

Pythons are the new pitbull these days seems like.

They must be hard up for for stuff to put on their show when they put a ball python bite on "When animals attack"...

it was so scary watching the clip I thought i was going to cry it was so scary lol, that was pitiful that it was on TV, and I blame the owner because he should have told the kids to keep their hands away! :colbert: I hope the snake was okay from the fall it took, but since that was such a brutal life threatening attack, they must have had to put him down:mad:

You're kidding right? Ruined a Vacation? Honestly? It wasn't really even a Juvie Burm, and young Burms are pretty nippy.

I guess we all know how we can get on TV now. Film our snake biting someone.
All I have to say is that we are all responsible for what our pets do.
No more incidents, no more bad publicity.
They had to go back 11 yrs to fish up that python "attack".

whats next a squirrel runs infront of a car and only get its tail hit? tv is pitiful now

I feel bad for the snake getting dropped.

sad :( thats the kind of people who ruin the hobby :(

Some members of the general public might not want to hear it but both were preventable. I have seen both videos before, and I can clearly see warning signs in each. If I had a snake show such behavior at a demo it would have already been back in its box before either attack could have happened.
Besides that, with as slow as that girl reached up my hand/body would have already been in the way,Duh snakes don't like their head messed with and the mother had already ticked it of by petting its head. when kids are around I try to keep a snake's head close to me so if it does do anything I will be the one bitten even though in 7 years and many demos and showing people the lab I have never had a snake bite me or anyone else during one, If a snake shows even a little sign of having an off day it stays in its cage or is returned immediatly. If a cat hisses you don't let a kid put their hand in its face, to continue handling a clearly upset snake is not any different.

Stupidity strikes again, maybe its contagious, better avoid people afflicted with it , you don't want to catch it.

well a good owner would have been able to read the snakes behavior and those snakes were perftect examples of po'd snakes lol
