Distracted Woman Casually Walks Past Python Sitting On Porch Light 5 Times Without Noticing

Carpet pythons are native to Australia, so it's no surprise that many residents of the continent have come across a carpet python or two.

But it took a woman from Queensland five tries to come across a carpet python herself. And as you'll see in the photos below, I can't really blame her for missing the snake completely!

You see, the woman had just arrived home from some grocery shopping. She was bringing her groceries into the house.

It took her five trips to notice the unexpected guest lying in plain sight!

Carpet pythons' scales come in an array of colors and patterns. Whatever the exact colors were on this one, the woman definitely didn't see her coiled up right next to her each time she made her trip to and from her car.

On the fifth trip, she finally noticed the snake — and called the Snake Catchers of Brisbane as quickly as she could.

Snake catcher Lana Field said that the snake had just been silently observing the woman go back and forth. The carpet python had probably found her way down the gutters of the house and ended up near her doorway.

Check out how the woman missed the sneaky python below!

The photo above looks like a regular doorway for a regular home.

But as the woman soon found out, there was nothing regular about the unexpected guest she had!

According to licensed snake catcher Lana Field, the carpet python had probably made her way down the home's gutters and coiled around the woman's light fitting, wondering where it should go next!

Lana added that residents should always give snakes the space they deserve — and call a licensed catcher if they want the reptile removed.
