A THREE-METRE python that swallowed a family's pet dog in Cairns has struck again, attempting to devour a chihuahua.
But this time, the dog's owner was able to prevent the animal from becoming dinner, dragging it out of the snake's mouth...
Australian Venom Zoo operator Stuart Douglas was called to remove the python, keeping it temporarily at his zoo before releasing it into the wild at a secret location...
The same snake had stalked and eaten Dot, a nine-month-old Jack Russell terrier, while she was playing in her backyard ...
Ms Stewart said she had become so distressed over the incident she had moved out of her home to get away from the snake.
"I couldn't take the risk with my 11-year-old son in the house," she said.
The incident follows a report of a scrub python, also known as an amethystine python, devouring a 35kg pet goat

Always keep a machete or hatchet around.
Never know when you’ll need it.
The nice thing about pythons is they are silent killers. Coyotes on the other hand are loud and the rabbits they get scream bloody murder. The coyote/rabbit combo woke me up around 2:30 last night.
Wow, that coyote/rabbit combo woke me up the other day too!
Happened on the front steps of my Naples, FL condo! I thought someone was being murdered!
The sound was awful. Blood everywhere.
I don’t understand these stories. Snake eats dog. Woman finds snake. Does nothing?
Does that mean it would like Yorkies?
Dog eating python? This may be the answer to pet over population! And a low cost way of feeding the snakes. Cool.
What IDIOT would allow the darn snake to get around his neck??!
Darwin alert!!!
Now if we can train this python to eat pit bulls, then we’ll HAVE something!
Just think what it could do to a marmot........
We call that kind of guy a vanishing breed. Ahem.....
I will never understand people that can't handle small problems like this,,, kill it,,, grill it! Taste like chicken.....
Wow.....maybe I need a python to eat the yapping dog next door
Squeeze me
But please don’t tease me.
C’mon and squeeze me
But please don’t tease me...
I wonder if that is what I heard several nights ago. Woke me up.
Awful noise I’ve never heard before. not yelping, growling, somewhere in between.
How bout a chain saw?
