The Hunt for the Giant Python: Successful Catch with the Help of Elder Magicians | SLICE

After a failed hunt, Kilo and Dina turn to the village's most revered elders, Maïduco and Abba, for help. These legendary hunters, known for their magical powers, have a reputation that spans generations.
Though Maïduco and Abba can't recall the exact year of their birth, they vividly remember the days when the village relied on their skills to capture giant snakes as tribute to Lamido, the region's powerful lord. In those days, the village offered elephant tusks, lion skins, and snake skins as tribute-traditions that have faded but still echo through the land.
In a symbolic act, Maïduco and Abba divide the giant python. Kilo and Dina receive the prized skin, while the elders keep the flesh, honoring the age-old custom of consuming the snake they conquer.

Another fantastic video! You really know how to keep things interesting. 👍

These people belongs to Hausa tribe living in north eastern part of Nigeria, since they are paying tribute to Lamido, the king of Adamawa. I was living with them in 1999 and was also hunting snakes during my free time after close of work.

[@saddiqodariko5434]

Yet not a single word of hausa had anyone of them spoken. The lamido of adamawas domain and sovereignty extends all the way through north east Nigeria to most of western Cameroon. These men are a super minority tribe anywhere in the aforementioned territory

I’ve seen this before but, I enjoyed watching it again.

[@tojjolojohn854]

These two men are so brave

It’s even funny how they scold the youngsters for not doing things properly 🤣🤣🤣

Heard lots of stories of village men Catching pythons in the jungles but we don't have this intentional hunting of Pythons in my culture.. this is interesting!

That's why they are scared of Nigerians

[@jeanandre6129]

I agree with you idea at only 49 %. Africa happens to be the cradle of civilization. Why Africans end up being so helpless and hopeless ?

[@mahantprasadpattanashetti4447]

You could have prevented the killing of endangered big snakes. Very unfortunate

[@takuan650]

Just another repeated fragment of some age old documentary. Slice needs clicks no matter what.

Why do they kill a python? Shame on them.👎👎

[@nmg1909]

Why do you also have to kill any animal because of its population in your continent? This generation will correct all the supremacy coming from the west.

[@Inahoyeptho]

None of your business

[@ajmc5338]

It's their culture go enjoy your western fake life
