“Oh baby. Don\u2019t move. There is like a 2.5-meter python<\/a> on you.”<\/p>\n

An Australian woman woke up in the middle of the night to discover a massive carpet python coiled across her chest after the snake slithered into her second-story bedroom in Brisbane, Queensland.<\/p>\n

Rachel Bloor said she initially believed the heavy weight on her stomach and chest was her dog lying on top of her. But when she reached out under the covers, she felt something smooth move beneath her hand and realized it was not her pet.<\/p>\n

“To my horror, I realized it wasn\u2019t my dog,” Bloor told the BBC<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The 2.5-meter, or roughly 8-foot, snake had made its way into her bedroom Monday night, according to the report.<\/p>\n

Bloor said she immediately woke her husband and asked him to turn on the lights.<\/p>\n

“He goes, \u2018Oh baby. Don\u2019t move. There is like a 2.5-meter python on you,\u2019” she recalled.<\/p>\n

Her first concern, Bloor said, was getting the family dogs out of the room before anything escalated.<\/p>\n

“I thought if my Dalmatian realized that there\u2019s a snake there, it is gonna be carnage,” she said.<\/p>\n

After her husband removed the dogs, Bloor carefully worked her way out from beneath the covers.<\/p>\n

“I sort of side shuffled out,” she said.<\/p>\n

Rather than calling a professional snake catcher, Bloor said she stayed calm and ushered the large reptile out of the bedroom herself through a window.<\/p>\n

“I grabbed him,” she said, adding that the python “didn\u2019t seem overly freaked out.”<\/p>\n

“He sort of just wobbled in my hand,” she said.<\/p>\n

Bloor suspects the snake entered through plantation shutters on her window and crawled onto the bed while she slept.<\/p>\n

“It was that big that even though it had been curled up on me, part of its tail was still out the shutter,” she said.<\/p>\n

The snake was identified as a carpet python, a non-venomous constrictor commonly found in Australia\u2019s coastal regions<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Despite the frightening encounter, Bloor said she was relieved it was not another animal.<\/p>\n

“Toads freak me out<\/u><\/a>,” she said.<\/p>\n

Snake catcher Kurt Whyte told ABC News<\/a> that snake activity has increased with breeding season over and eggs beginning to hatch.<\/p>\n

“Obviously, with this hot weather, we\u2019re seeing plenty of them getting out and about and basking in this sun,” Whyte said.<\/p>\n

Whyte added that while snake populations have not necessarily increased, sightings are becoming more common as housing developments<\/u><\/a> expand into Australian bushland.<\/p>\n

“They have got to find places to live, and our backyards are offering the perfect habitat,” he said.<\/p>\n

He warned that common household features could provide easy access for snakes seeking shelter.<\/p>\n

“Unfortunately, the gaps in our garage doors\u2026 provide the perfect entry points for a snake,” Whyte said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
