Re: Pyhton eats a DEER! (hope this isnt a repost)
I think the title is funny--"swallows deer whole". Did they expect the snake to chop it up in little pieces before eating it?

Re: Pyhton eats a DEER! (hope this isnt a repost)
Fantastic, thanks for sharing. I am trying to find out more about these large meals in constrictors and if they end up regurgitated, digested or rot in the stomach of the snake. With so many pictures and reportings of large meals in snakes, I assume they have ways to handle these large prey items.
