Xiu Qiong Duan, 68, told the SINA Beijing news agency she woke up in the middle of the night to find the snake clinging to the wall of her bedroom.

"I woke up and heard a strange scratching sound ... at first I thought it was thieves" she said.

"I turned on the light and saw this monster working its way along the wall using his claw."

Ms Duan, from Suining in southwest China, said she then grabbed a shoe and beat the snake to death.

She reportedly preserved its body in a bottle of alcohol which she gave to the Life Sciences Department at China's West Normal University in Nanchang.

Snake expert Long Shuai said the discovery of the creature, which is 40cm long and the thickness of a little finger, was "truly shocking".

"We won't know the cause until we've conducted an autopsy," she said.

Its funny how our natural reaction to wildlife/things we don't understand is kill everything and then say "wow...that looks kinda cool, maybe I should keep it"

This is why unicorns and Pegasus and loch ness and dragons don't exist anymore.

Seen this yesterday. Crazy, crazy stuff right there. Maybe snakes are evolving to point they'll grow wings and spit fire...haha

Other than that, not really sure what to think of this.

Well, it is pretty obvious that the snake recently ate something. Look how much thicker it is around the 'claw'.

Most likely it ate a lizard, and the lizard fought back, piercing the skin of the snake.

The rest of the story about the snake climbing a womans bedroom wall is likely just made up rubbish. There is no way you could climb a vertical wall with that.

Look at the story below. Would you say that the python sprouted legs and another tail?

Maybe her Ancestors sent her e Dragon to help her in her later years? Unfortunately she didn't get the memo.

Guess no Disney buyout to make a movie on her life story for Mulan II

    My insurance has a thing called, " Nope, we aren't paying for that." that they like to use on us all the time. Then we play the "Ok we will go to some other insurance company." then they miraculously say ok we will pay for that.
