Snake swallows Kangaroo

I'm sure these are old pics, but I've never seen them and others may want to see them as well.

I found them at http://www.ebaumsworld.com/snake-kangaroo.html...there are more pics than what I posted.

We always seem to get many posts about that and the other ones of what snakes do some are cropped though, but since that one looks legit isn't it pretty cool to see what snakes have the ability to do, and eat?

IE: I probably weigh as much as the snake, and would never be able to eat half that much in 2 days let alone one sitting.

trinitywolf will become famous soon enoughtrinitywolf will become famous soon enough

I would bet my bottom dollar that is a wallaby and not a kangaroo. I could be wrong but I just can't imagine a JCP eating an adult roo that weighs nearly 200lbs.

I don't think you're wrong.

There is nothing in the pic to give any size information. However, even if JCP was an adult, and maxed out in len at 7ft, heck, even 8ft it would not be able to eat anything over 10lbs.

It has to be eating a small critter, no matter what it is.

If you look at the first pic, there is a tree root in it, what ever it is, is very small. Heck for all I know it could be a Kangaroo Rat (Dipodomys).
