A Chinese resident panicked as a python that snuck into a bathroom on the 8th floor of a building in southern China.

In the video filmed in Shenzhen city, a resident found the python as soon as he entered the bathroom at 8:00 a.m. The windows of the bathroom are usually open and it is estimated that it crawled in through the windows.

The police rushed to the scene and sent the python to Shenzhen Wildlife Rescue Station.

According to the staff of the rescue station, this python belongs to the national first-class protected animal and it’s against law raising such a kind of python.
