Mangalore, May 16: An eight-feet-long python was found in the hay storage area of a cow shelter located at Jnanashakti Subramanya Temple, Pavanje, near here, on Tuesday May 16.










 The city’s snake catcher Gangesh Bolar rescued the python and its 13 eggs and handed them over to Pilikula Nisargadhama.  He holds the record for rescuing a 16-year-old python in the past and a majority of his catches have been cobras.
