— A nine-foot long Burmese python recently killed a two-year-old child in Oxford, Florida when the reptile escaped from its terrarium.  The snake when found had constricted around the child, and was stabbed until it relinquished its grip, although unfortunately it was by then too late for the toddler.  The python had bitten and then squeezed to death the little girl.  The owner of the snake may face criminal charges…
