What may seem like just another day at work might take a shocking turn when you least expect it to. A mailman’s job may not seem particularly dangerous but it can turn out to be risky.

A mailman in Kansas US was just out doing his job when he was greeted by a terrifying surprise waiting for him at a mailbox. He was shocked to see a huge python wrapped around the box which was later found to be eight-foot-long.

 

Authorities clarified that the snake was a boa constrictor as animal control officers carefully removed it. The snake is believed to have escaped from a nearby house as police hope that the owner will get in touch with them soon.
