A scrub python managed to cling on to the wing of an airplane for the duration of a two-hour flight!
The plane was flying from Australia to Papua New Guinea at 250mph and the temperature at its altitude was -12 degrees Celsius! The python was almost ten feet long and was clearly visible to all the passengers in the plane.
It’s suspected that the python crawled into the landing bay to make a home and then crawled out onto the wing. The snake was initially hidden, but once the plane started moving, it was yanked out of its hiding place and forced to fight the elements!
Unfortunately, despite putting up a good fight, the snake was unable to survive.
