A wild python was rescued after being stuck on a drain cover's hole in Thailand.

The snake was trying to slither into the narrow hole leading to the sewers but its body was too big to fit in Pathum Thani province on February 12.

It was spotted by staff from a nearby beauty clinic who called the animal rescuers for help. Upon arrival, they poured oil on the snake's body but they were unsuccessful in slipping it out.

The drain cover was then lifted with the help of local officials before the snake was finally pulled out.

Chayut, one of the rescuers, said: 'We were relieved that it was not suffocated after so many hours of being trapped.'

The snake was released into the wild afterwards.
