A local farmer noticed it and then informed the authorities of the Girnar Wildlife Sanctuary.

"Python roams around the wildlife sanctuary and they could rarely be seen. We got a telephonic message of a farmer that a python has swallowed a big animal. We sent a rescue team immediately and found that a python has swallowed a blue bull," said Assistant Conservator of Forest S.D. Tilala.

Tilala said they would release the python soon after it digests the blue bull.

"It was 18-20 feet long. We will keep it under observation and transport the animal to some other place so that it does not injure other people." he said.
