This is the moment a rogue python responsible for eating at least 20 chicken in a three month killing spree was finally caught.<br /><br />The 12ft long snake was seen slithering away from the coup after swallowing yet another creature on Wednesday morning (April 15).<br /><br />Farmer Jutamas Kraipol, 28, called the emergence services to finally come and catch the reptile outside her home Mahasarakham, northeastern Thailand.<br /><br />Footage shows the team rummaging through thick grass to lure out the serpent. They managed to drag it into the open and pin it down with a rod.<br /><br />The farmer said she is sure that the same snake has been responsible for a spate of missing chickens over the last few months.<br /><br />She said: "My brother went to cut some grass for our cows but he then rushed back in a panic. He was scared because he had seen the big snake.<br /><br />"I called the rescue team as I'm sure it was the same snake that has been taking my chickens."<br /><br />Jutamas said that 20 fully grown chickens had been killed and disappeared since the year began.<br /><br />She said: "I was confused at first after a couple of my chicken were missing. There were just a few feathers left. I soon realised it was a snake but now I think the deaths will stop.''<br /><br />The snake was captured and was put into the sack for the rescue team to release back into the wild at least 10 miles away.
