Reticulated pythons are of the strongest and longest reptiles on the planet. When handling snakes this big and strong, it is highly recommended to have at least one other person present.
Amanda Black, the owner of a thirteen-foot-long reticulated python named Diablo, thought she could handle the reptile on her own.
The pet had been sick, and was prescribed medicine to cure it. Amanda took on the responsibility of administering the medicine to the snake, which was to be given orally through a syringe. According to Amanda’s husband, Diablo did not like the medicine or the process of receiving it.
Forcing open the mouth of a large, strong and agile python is certainly something that should be approached with great caution. As Amanda attempted to give the medicine, the snake naturally became agitated. It eventually became enough for it to attack and overpower her. As the attack progressed and Diablo wrapped around, Amanda suffered from an intense neck compression by the snake, which led to her death by asphyxiation.
The python did not kill her in a predatory way like many snake attacks on humans. Diablo did not even attempt to consume her after the death, but went straight into hiding. Snake expert, Bowen LaJesse, says that pythons beyond eight feet should be handled by at least two people, and especially if medication is involved.
