I think they need to get their facts straight. I don't know anything about snakes, because I don't like them, but that snake is way longer than 10'. And he probably won't eat for a much longer period of time than they said in the article. But thanks for posting that. I wouldn't have thought a snake could eat such a large croc.

The Crocodile was 3', and it is an Olive Python which is not going to get much longer than 10'. 8ft. is about average.

Wow, I'm surprised the snake could even swallow that! That must've been absolutely crazy to see.

Glad you missed me Jeff. It's hard to get on here as much as I would like, but I do get to read some great posts sometimes. Never stop learning new things on this forum. xo

I also do not like snakes. My wife hate it even more. We gave them the respect of they are also created by God and that is it...

Wow it ate it whole? All of the hundreds of pythons I have had in the past used to use kitchen utensils to cut up their prey before swallowing the bite sized pieces! What a story! lol
