The young girl took immediate action when she realised her guinea pig was in danger—hidden amid the bushes in her backyard, ready to be eaten by the python. Rather than cowering or retreating, she boldly went up to the trespassing reptile.

With a daring move, she seized the python by its tail. With unexpected strength and determination, she swung the serpent in circles. Her sole motivation was to save her pet, and she was successful in doing so. The girl persisted, and after a few tense seconds, the python gave up and released the guinea pig.

Her family heard screaming and quickly came out to see what was happening. The dad grabbed the snake and threw it into the bush.
