Pet Snake Swallows 9-Month-Old Pit Bull
From Times Wire Reports
A man who used to have two pets--a pit bull terrier and a Burmese python--now has only one: a 200-pound python with a pit bull-sized bulge.
Merced Police Cmdr. Tom Martin said the man called police Friday after the reptile escaped from its cage. The owner found the snake but realized his 30-pound pit bull was also missing.
“In the middle of the snake, there was a big round bulge,” Martin said. “[The owner] surmised it was his 9-month-old pit bull.”
