Oh... Poor Python Pete!! It's so risky! /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/frown.gif

 

/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/eek.gif I'm scared for him!!

 

I hope Pete sees the pythons before they see him.

 

I pulled up the article on msnbc.com. Pete is trained to stop well short of the python and simply paw at the ground when he finds one. He's adorable! There's a video there that shows a few seconds of him. He's very playful!

Here's the link - Python Pete

 

I saw that on tv last night. It was very interesting how he actually smells them out and keeps his distance.

The power of the nose!!!

 

This goes as proof that beagles can be trained to do just about anything!

 

How cute! A real "working" beetle!

(eeewww, gotta watch for those alligator vs python pics...I hate those!)

 

Wow! How cool! Lucky killed a snake one time. I didn't get to see him do it , but he skinned it as well (it wasn't poisonous). That's gross!

 

thank goodness we dont have dangerous large snakes. We do have adders but I hope our beagles wouldnt go near.

 

That's quiet impressive!He is far braver then I!
