The giant python repeatedly attacked people in Indonesia?

In every case of "terrible" pythons confronting humans, this cold-blooded creature is always considered a villain.

According to the Washington Post, two pythons to attack people in Indonesia this year are very remarkable. The attackers are the longest and strongest pythons in the world.

They kill people by squeezing, until the victim's heart stops beating. The python then opened its mouth wide and swallowed the victim in a flash.

This is clearly one of the most macabre stories of modern times. Even when the end did not lead to death, the incident quickly spread throughout the world newspapers.

But scientists think the python attacks people not only scary about the power of cold-blooded predators. It could also be a warning bell about how humans destroy the natural environment.

In the latest incident in Indonesia, Robert Nabalan victim is a security officer working on a palm oil farm. Mr. Nabalan is on his way back home when he discovers a 7-meter-long giant python blocking the road.

There was a witness that Nabalan tried to clear the way for the car. Another said the 37-year-old man wanted to catch the python.

But what happens after that is nothing to discuss. The giant python slammed into the man's arm, wrapping the person tightly around the victim. Mr. Nabalan is said to have used a large knife to carry around to fight back.

As a result, Indonesian men were seriously injured, while the giant python died on the scene. This story quickly spread throughout the world.

Not as lucky as Mr. Nabalan, earlier this year, an Indonesian young man who harvested palm oil could never return home. The 25-year-old clashed with the giant python 7 meters long and was swallowed by the cold-blooded predator.

When python abdominal surgery, people found the victim, surrounded all over the body is python digestive fluid.

Two incidents occurred about 6 months apart, the same happened in palm oil farms , made many people wonder.

According to the Washington Post, half of the products found in grocery stores have ingredients from the fruit of palm oil.

This type of material is quite popular and cheap. The places where palm oil trees thrive are also tropical forests , the ideal place of python.

Because palm oil production is profitable, many tropical forests in Indonesia are flattened to make room for palm oil cultivation and harvesting.

This created an environmental crisis in Indonesia, the island nation with the third largest proportion of tropical forests in the world, after Brazil and Congo. Therefore, the collection of palm oil in Malaysia and Indonesia has resulted in heavy consequences.

The production of palm oil has caused the forest to be devastated, increasing greenhouse gas emissions and causing many species to stand on the brink of extinction, the scientists said.

Scientist Doug Boucher mentioned the consequences that Indonesian people increasingly clashed with pythons.'Python does not threaten people. In other words, our devastating actions have caused people to clash with them more . '

According to Mr. Boucher, there are areas where palm oil planting is not the place where pythons once lived. But the emergence of mice and other rodents also attracted pythons to the area to find food.

'If people panic when encountering pythons, they are equally surprising. Tran did not expect him to go anywhere today, " Mr. Boucher said.

The results of these engagements are often disastrous. If not humans lose their lives, it is python or both.

In the latest incident, the giant python who died with Mr. Nababan had no chance of surviving.

While the man was taken to the hospital, crowded villagers brought pythons hanging between two trees. Many children enjoy seeing giant pythons, some of them sit up like riding a horse.

At the end of the day, the villagers cut python meat into small pieces and shared food.
