This was emailed to me by a friend giving me a hard time about my new pet. Saying this is what stewie (my snake) will become. Pretty amazing. The email reads of an australian sheep farmer that had sheep turn up missing. He thought they were escaping and put up an electric fence to corral them better.
THIS IS WHAT HE FOUND

Any idea of what kind of snake this is?
From what ive looked up it did not die. The electric fence stopped shocking it after a few seconds, a safety feature to keep livestock from being killed should they get caught up in the fence.

If it's the pic of the African Rock python w/it's teeth snagged on the fence, it certainly didn't happen in Australia.
