Man killed by his own python

The 31-year-old Briton who was found dead last year in his bedroom in Hampshire appears to have been killed by his own python.

At the end of August, Dan Brandon was found dead by his mother. He had died by suffocation. It is not immediately clear what the role of his python was.

Now it turns out that Tiny ('Little One'), a 2,40-meter-long rock python, has put his owner to death, according to the research that The Guardian reports about. First it was thought that the serpent had strangled Dan.

According to the coroner, the snake first curled around Brandon. Possibly the Briton then fell and the snake startled.

Besides Tiny, Brandon also had nine snakes and twelve tarantulas. Now his mother takes care of the animals.
