A six-feet long python which had fallen into a 60-feet deep well in a farm located on the outskirts of the city was rescued here today, after three hours of effort, by volunteers of the city-based Wild Life Rescue Trust (WRT) and staff of the Gujarat forest department.
After farm owner Ankit Gosai spotted the python falling into the well in his farm, he contacted the WRT.
"We rescued an Indian Rock Python after tieing a stick on a rope to get the python out after one of our volunteers who tried to climb down the well, found it difficult to breathe after he went 30 feet down," Wild Life Rescue Trust volunteer Arvind Pawar said.
