Pretoria - When a python bit a dog and started winding its powerful body around it, two screaming women, fuelled by panic, fought back.

Despite one of them having a snake phobia and the fact that they are both much smaller than the almost 4m-long snake, there was no way Jamie Traynor and Kari Wesighan were going to let Jess, a German Shepherd, be devoured by the python, Netwerk24 reported.

"Jess is a bitch, so it was actually three women against the snake," said Arrie van Deventer of the Rhino Orphanage in Limpopo on Tuesday.

He can smile about it now, but that's only because Jess is back from the vet in (mostly) one piece.

"The girls could only tell me what had happened up to a certain point and how they fought the snake tooth and nail," a clearly impressed Van Deventer said.

Van Deventer says Traynor and two security dogs, Zandrof and Jess, had gone take care of the rhino orphans on Sunday morning.

Pandemonium

"They were walking back through the veld at about 06:20 with Zandrof leading the way and Jess at Jamie's side.

"The next moment Jamie saw the snake, which had been in the grass, grab Jess just above her front paw and start to curl around her.

"Jamie started screaming while she grabbed the snake."

"The snake, probably also a tad sore after the women's yanking, was relocated far away."

Nuff said.
 
Yeah, if I were there I'd be like "gg snek" and run away. I don't mess with sneks.
