Missing Indonesian farmer found dead inside giant python

25-year-old Indonesian man has been swallowed whole by a python on the island of Sulawesi, according to reports.A search found the giant python sprawled out next to his garden with the 25-year-old’s boots clearly visible in its stomach.

Village secretary Salubiro Junaidi said that villagers began searching for Akbar on Monday night after realizing he hadn’t returned from working on his palm oil crops the previous day.

Junaedi said Wednesday that the search party found scattered palm oil fruit, a picking tool and a boot, and then spotted the engorged 7-meter (23-foot) -long reticulated python.

“When its stomach was cut, we first saw his boot and legs near the neck,” he said. “It seems he was attacked from behind because we found a wound on his back.”
