Snake attacks zookeeper, viral video leaves netizens shocked

While snake catchers and rescuers are experts at handling the reptiles, they, too, experience scary moments. A recent one caught on camera was of Jay Brewer, the founder of the Reptile Zoo in California. The clip was shared on Brewer’s social media account along with a caption that read, “Wayyy too close for comfort 😳.”

In the clip, which has now gone viral on social media, Brewer is seen dodging an attack by a python. “Wow! As soon as my eyes shifted from her. See how smart this snake is? The second I shifted my eyes, she knew that I wasn’t ready to jump,” he said in the clip after the snake nearly missed his face.
