Оглавлениеthe Python
Sambath Uon, a boy from the village of Sit Tbow in Cambodia, formed an unlikely friendship with Chamreun, a six-metre-long, 265lb female python. The snake first arrived at Sambath’s house when the boy was three months old, and continued to stick around even though Sambath’s father carried the snake into the forest and left him there three times. Sambath and Chamreun, say villagers, have slept together since Sambath was a baby. The villagers believe that Chamreun – whose name means lucky in the Khmer language – has healing powers.
