While taking a lunch break, a woman was "shocked" to discover a giant python slithering into her house.

A heart-stopping situation was recorded by a surveillance camera in Ben Tre, showing the moment a woman was resting in a hammock with her child, unaware that a large python was crawling into her door.

Only when the python slithered closer to where the mother and child were lying did the woman suddenly realize the presence of the animal. She immediately picked up her child and ran into the house to get away from the scary animal.

The python lay still in front of the house for a while before slithering out, instead of continuing into the house. Luckily, the woman was able to spot the animal in time and run away, before it could get closer and attack her.

Pythons and snakes rarely attack humans, however, if they come close enough to a snake and feel threatened, they will bite in self-defense. Although pythons are not venomous, their bites will cause a lot of bleeding due to their sharp teeth and can cause infection due to the many harmful bacteria in their mouths.

Group of tourists dare to approach mountain gorillas

A group of tourists visiting Volcanoes National Park (Rwanda) ventured through the rainforest to visit a family of mountain gorillas.

The group of tourists then approached an adult mountain gorilla to film and take photos. When the gorilla moved, the tour guide asked the group to lie still and absolutely not make eye contact with the animal.

The mountain gorilla then ignored the group of tourists and climbed down. During the journey, the gorilla even climbed on top of a tourist without paying any attention to him.

Such an approach to mountain gorillas is considered risky, as the animal may attack these people if it feels threatened or its territory is violated.

Adult male mountain gorillas are 161 to 171cm tall and weigh 120 to 191kg. Females are smaller, weighing only 70 to 98kg.

Mountain gorillas are now listed as endangered species because their numbers have declined due to habitat loss and hunting by humans.

Excavator driver panicked when discovering a large python while digging soil.

An excavator operator in Songkhla province (Thailand) encountered a heart-stopping situation when he discovered a large python hiding inside a cave deep underground.

When the excavator was digging, a large python suddenly crawled out. The excavator driver intended to use the bucket to capture the animal, but the python fiercely resisted and tried to escape. At one point, the python slithered straight toward the excavator's cab, causing the driver to panic and reverse the vehicle.

The python then slithered towards the overgrown weeds nearby to escape.

The python in the clip is a reticulated python, also known as a reticulated python, which is the longest python species in the world. Adult reticulated pythons can grow to 6m in length and sometimes up to 8m. This species of python lives in many different environments, including residential areas, so it often clashes with humans.

Monkey almost got burned while playing with lighter

The clip captures the moment a mischievous monkey learns how to use a lighter, to the point of almost burning itself, making many witnesses laugh.

The clip was recorded by a witness in the town of Puerto Misahuallí (Ecuador). This is an area near the Amazon rainforest so there are often many wild animals, including monkeys.

The author of the clip shared that it is unclear where the monkey got the lighter from, but it seems that the animal has learned how to make fire. The animal repeatedly swipes the lighter on the ground to create fire, but directs the flame towards the bottom of its body, causing part of its fur to burn off.

Although he almost got burned by his prank, the monkey did not stop and continued to light the fire and set his own fur on fire. Of course, the monkey was smart enough to put out the fire before his body was burned or his fur was completely burned.

Many people watching the clip humorously thought that the monkey was getting used to using fire to cook food, like prehistoric humans did.

Strange scene when thousands of birds fly in the sky in China

People living in Tianjin city (China) recorded a strange scene, when countless black birds flew across the sky and made loud noises.

A man surnamed Xu, who lives in Tianjin, said he heard loud cries outside his window. When he looked out, he was amazed to see so many birds flying around that the sky was almost covered.

Images and videos of this strange scene were shared on social media. Many netizens said that this scene resembled the apocalyptic scenes they often see in science fiction movies.

Wen Cheng, an ornithologist at Peking University, said the flocks were a mix of swallows, wagtails, sparrows and crows. They gather in big cities to roost overnight, as big cities tend to be warmer and have fewer predators. This phenomenon usually occurs in late autumn, when the weather gradually cools.
