Interesting article out of Australia.

A carpet python was found after it had eaten a kitten in a family's backyard. I know it's just a typical news story about snakes that plays on people's fears, but I was impressed once again at how the Australians treat their reptiles. Even though it had eaten this family's pet, they called someone to safely remove the snake. They even went out of their way to x-ray the snake instead of making it regurge in order to confirm if it had in fact eaten the kitten.
