Bangkok, Thailand CNN —A Thai woman has been rescued by police after being strangled by a python for more than two hours.
The python then wrapped itself around her until she fell to the ground.
She struggled to free herself from the snake’s tightening coils for two hours without success, according to the police.
According to Thailand’s National Health Security office, some 12,000 people were treated for venomous snake and animal bites in the country last year.
