A python on the loose in Qatar!

Hi guys,

There is a one meter python snake on the loose in Qatar, somewhere in the West Bay and the adjoining areas. It was spotted by a man near the Qatar Foundation in the last 48hrs.

Anybody who spots the snake must immediately inform the authorities, especially the Ministry of Environment.

@TCOM I know, Python are even recommended for new beginners when it comes to pet handling....but still I am expecting people to go crazy and doubt if they can find comfort and security again in Qatar after this dreadful event!

Python snakes are not dangerous. My son has a pet which is 8 meters long.

They are one of the most laziest snakes around. Are not venomous and can be easily overpowered by properly trained personnel.

Yes, please lock your doors because whilst pythons can turn doorknobs it's well known they can't pick locks!
