A Zambian truck driver who was forced to kick, bite and stab his way from the clutches of a giant python, said Friday he was lucky to be alive.
Kelvin Katoka, 25, unknowingly ran into the giant snake, while driving his excavator in the bush at a copper mine in north western Zambia.
“Within no time, the python was all over my body and it then threw me on the ground,” he told AFP by phone from his hospital bed, where he has been recovering for nearly a month.
Rock pythons are Africa’s largest snake and can grow up to seven meters (23 feet) long. They have been known to kill and swallow whole antelope, wildebeest and even crocodiles.
Attacks on humans are rare.
