Fatehpur, Aug 11 A truck driver carrying cargo from Satna, Madhya Pradesh, to Fatehpur in Uttar Pradesh was scared out of his wits when he saw a 15 ft-long python curled up under his seat.

The driver had stopped the truck in Bindki for a meal and felt some movement under his seat.

He got down to check and was shocked to see a python curled up comfortably under his seat.

He immediately informed the people around and a forest team was called in.

When the team pulled out the snake, they found that he was more than 15 ft-long.

The python was later released into the forest area.

"I am still in a state of shock thinking that I travelled this distance with the python under my seat," the driver told local people.
