Footage has emerged from China of police officers catching a huge python after it ate a villager's ducks
The video, captured in Fangchenggang, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region on October 20, shows police officers trying to catch the snake inside a duck shed.
The villager - named only as Yan - noticed his ducks were missing and found the snakes curled up near their cage.
The officers eventually released the animal into a nearby forest because it is a protected species in China.
