12-year old swings python 'like a hammer thrower' to save pet guinea pig

A 12-year-old Australian girl saved her pet guinea pig from the jaws of a six-foot long snake by swinging it above her head "like a hammer thrower".

Rosie Whitman discovered the python wrapping itself around her pet, Maxibon, behind a bush in her family’s back garden, on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast.

“I saw the snake wrapping, wrapping and wrapping itself around his neck, so tight,” she later told Australian network 9News in a sit-down interview, while stroking the rescued pet on her lap.

“He was trying to fight it off, so I was like, ‘I have to help him.' So I grabbed the snake and swung it around.”
