Snake Catcher Finds Carpet Python 'Chilling' Under Garbage Bin

A family in Buderim, Queensland, found extra reason to fear trash day when a snake catcher discovered a carpet python lurking under their wheelie bin.

Snake catcher Stuart McKenzie, who owns Sunshine Coast Snake Catchers 24/7, quickly nabbed the snake from its hiding place. He later released the python into the wild.

“People seem to forget that there’s a gap underneath the rubbish bin, and there’s so many times I can think of where we’ve caught snakes just chilling out underneath there,” McKenzie says in the video. Credit: Stuart McKenzie via Storyful
