🐍 In Indonesia, a giant snake has swallowed a woman. The body of the 45-year-old mother of four was found in the stomach of the five-meter-long reticulated python, village chief Suardi Rosi announced on Saturday.

45-year-old Farida did not return home on Thursday evening and has been missing since then. Her husband and other residents of the village of Kalempang in the province of South Sulawesi started a search and discovered the missing woman's personal belongings on Friday.

Shortly afterwards, "they discovered a python with a big belly," reported the village chief. "They agreed to cut open the python's stomach." The missing woman's head was immediately visible. The snake swallowed the woman fully clothed.

Reticulated pythons mainly eat smaller animals and birds, only very rarely they kill people. However, there have been a few deaths in Indonesia in recent years:
▪️Last year, villagers in Southeast Sulawesi killed an eight-meter-long python that had swallowed a farmer.
▪️In 2018, a 54-year-old woman was found dead in the stomach of a seven-meter-long python in Southeast Sulawesi.
▪️In 2017, a man was devoured by a four-meter-long python on a palm oil plantation in West Sulawesi.
