This is the extraordinary moment a giant python was caught by furious villagers - after it gorged on TWO of their goats.
The greedy reptile devoured the hapless farm creatures after slithering through a wire fence in Pahang, Malaysia.
Horrified villagers found the stodged serpent sprawled out in the mud with an enormous lump in its belly from the partially digested goats.
Residents - afraid to get near the enormous creature - poked it with sticks as it sluggishly reared up to bares its fangs.
But the porky python couldn't muster a defence and was eventually tied up and carted away in a truck.
Onlooker Akouck Joe Gank said: ''This was the longest python I have ever seen. He ate two goats from a farm and couldn't move.
''That'll teach him to be so greedy. It needed three of four men to lift the python away. He was long, very long.''
