Snakes crawling on vehicles have become a common phenomenon lately. Recently, a video from Goa emerged, showing a huge python snake coiled under the seat and tank of a motorcycle Royal Enfield Classic 350.

The snake was later rescued by a snake handler, and the video quickly went viral on the internet.
The video was shared by Ramesh Bhovi on his Facebook page. Although the exact location of the snake sighting is not mentioned in the video, motorcycles with Goan license plates suggest it occurred somewhere in Goa.
As the video begins, the Python is seen coiled under the motorcycle’s seat. It’s still unclear how the snake entered the bike – was the bike parked near bushes, or did the motorcyclist spot the snake while riding?
The large snake was firmly coiled under the seat, with its head positioned under the fuel tank, slowly making its way there. In an attempt to scare the snake, the motorcyclist initiated the Classic 350, but it proved futile. A snake handler is seen trying to extract the snake from the bike, but its tight coils made the task challenging. The handler even resorted to slapping the snake, likely out of desperation.
A spectator provided a key to release the Royal Enfield’s seat, allowing the snake handler to properly grasp the snake.
Meanwhile, the snake’s head can be seen near the front forks under the fuel tank. After several attempts, the handler managed to grab the snake and located its tail, firmly coiled under the seat.
Once the tail was located, the handler successfully extracted the snake. It was indeed a considerable snake. The professional placed the snake in a bag and moved it to another area or handed it over to the forestry department. Revving the motorcycle’s engine to scare the snake is ineffective. Although the Python isn’t venomous, it can still bite and coil, potentially disrupting blood circulation.
Reptiles like snakes are cold-blooded animals that seek warmth when the environment gets cold. The heat from the Classic 350’s engine may have attracted the snake.
If faced with such a situation, always seek help from professionals and avoid handling the snake alone, as it can be dangerous.
