Can you imagine your young child curled up with a massive python
snake? Check out these images of a 7-year-old kid who is doing just that
with his parents approval.
A Cambodian boy, Uorn Sambath, has made an unlikely friend
with a 220-pound python snake. The snake, named Chamroeun, which means
“progress” crawled into their lives as a baby snake seven years ago,
when Uorn was only three months old. According to his parents, Uorn used
to sleep together with the snake in his cradle, and learned to crawl
with him. Their bizarre bond has turned the pair into a tourist
attraction in their remote village.
Local
authorities attempted to take the snake to a zoo, but once they saw the
child curled up with the snake they relented. The python only eats
chicken, about 22 pounds per week, which has become quite a financial
strain to the family. Also, the snake could easily crush the little boy,
but neither the parents nor Uorn are worried due to their sibling like
relationship. Chamroeun is considered a “magical spirit” by the family,
which brings them health and happiness.
