A deputy with the Lee County Sheriff's Office (LCSO) answered an emergency call from residents in Lehigh Acres Florida when a python was seen on a pool deck over the weekend. What made this story interesting was that deputy must have been trained on how to remove a python from the swimming pool deck with ease and take the snake to another area away from the residents since the deputy asked the residents if they wanted to pet the snake. Of course, the residents did not want to touch the python at all. I do not blame them at all. Link is wpbf.com/article/florida...

I'm glad he was able to relocate the snake. I held the heavy middle portion of a python at an animal park.

I'm not sure I would want to touch a python either.

That looks to be a rather large python, and I would not want to get anywhere near it, especially near a swimming pool, as I think they can swim too.
