Python is hungry and knowing this, all the other animals are keeping out of his way. So Python comes up with a cunning scheme. He invites them all to a party promising he will be good. The animals can’t resist and join in enthusiastically when he suggests they all perform party tricks. Python saves his trick for last and if it hadn’t been for Elephant passing by, he might just have had the last laugh.
