Li Tianzeng, of Foshan city, Guangdong province, has been staying in a glass box with his pet python, Jan 31, 2013. The 11-year-old Li Tianzeng and the 50-kilogram python have become good buddies, and the boy plans to stay with his pet snake for 15 days to mark the beginning of the Year of the Snake, and to try to challenge the Guinness World Record. By doing this, Li hopes people can learn to co-exist harmoniously with animals, and stop hurting them.[Photo by Ye Huijing/Asianewsphoto]
