A monk was hurt after a python wrapped itself around his body and bit him in Bangkok, Thailand. The incident was caught on CCTV and later aired on Unang Balita on Wednesday.

Video footage showed the monk approaching his fellow monks while asking for help. A large python was already tightly coiled around his body at that time. Moments later, the snake tightened its grip around his neck, causing the monk to collapse and lose consciousness.

Other monks quickly rushed to his aid and worked together to remove the python from his body. Their quick action helped stop the snake from tightening its hold any further.

Medics soon arrived and attended to the monk, who later regained consciousness. He was seen bleeding from his wrist after the python bit his arm. Authorities brought him to a hospital for further treatment.

Rescue volunteers later captured the python. After securing the snake, they released it into a forest away from residential areas.

Officials did not give further details on how the python ended up near the monks or how long it had been there. Investigation into the incident was not mentioned in the report.

Local authorities continue to remind the public to stay alert, especially in areas where wild animals may appear unexpectedly.

A monk is a man who chooses to live a religious life focused on prayer, discipline, and service. He often lives in a monastery or temple and follows strict rules based on his faith. Monks usually give up many comforts of daily life to focus on spiritual growth and helping others.
