Summary
A 6-foot carpet python was removed from a Sunshine Coast home after a man lifted a propane tank cover and found the snake hiding underneath.
The wildlife specialist said the python needed little coaxing and calmly slithered into a transport bag before being released in a more suitable natural area.
Carpet pythons are nonvenomous and pose little threat to humans, though they regularly turn up in Australian backyards, homes and other suburban hiding spots.
