Un serpent de plus de 8 m de long!

Un serpent de plus de 8 mètres de long a été découvert par l'armée tunisienne coincé au milieu des fils barbelés de la frontière tuniso-libyenne .


Selon Al Akhbar de Tunisie, ce gros serpent d'une tonne, avait déjà gobé 2 moutons lorsque une patrouille de l’armée a été alertée par ses sifflets.


Le serpent s’est trouvé coincé dans les fils barbelés à cause de sa grosse taille.

Re: Your article on a Huge Snake found in the
Southern part of Tunisia

Dear Babnet honorable webmaster:

Reading your story on the this huge Python
caught by the Tunisian army somewhere along the Tunisian-libyan frontier just
caught my attention. Knowing that true Journalism requires investigation,
transparence and honesty.

I found myself obliged to give the following
corrections.

 Looking at these pics which the tunisian
journalist claims are taken by a certain Mounir Baccar by his cell phone is
totally misleading.

I bet Mr. Baccar had a highly sophistacted
cellphone to take this very neat pics!.The first time I came across those pics
was via a libyan blogger: From the Rock (

http://lonehighlander.blogspot.com/2005/10/python-in-libya-as-far-as-i-know-this.html)
and her post dates back to october 12, 2005, whereas the tunisian newspaper
article is dated november, 2005. Second, a close scrutiny to the fence shows
that it is an elecrified one something rare or even non-existant in the area
mentioned. For those who would like to know the truth visit this link and you
will know that this Python and not anaconda is found somewhere else in Africa!

l'article comme paru sur Al Akhbar

Dans l'éditon du jeudi 1 decembre, le gouvernorat de Tataouine (sud de la Tunisie) a nié toute connaissance de cette histoire en priant le journal de vérifier l'authenticié de l'évenement avant publication.
