Child snake charmer

13 January 2010 16:30 PM

A three-year-old Australian girl has befriended a python snake.

Tiny Haileigh McGuire has been inseparable from her pet coastal carpet python Murray since she was a baby - even though he is four times longer than her.

The pair are such good friends, the youngster has even taken the enormous reptile - who is 3.75-meter-long - into school for show-and-tell sessions with her classmates.

She said: "He's very friendly."

Haileigh's stepfather Brendan McGuire - who has had the 10-year-old snake since high school - said: "Kids just take to Murray. Once you let them know it's a pet they can't get enough of him.
