Watch a python kills and then swallows crocodile whole

Queensland, March 01: When it comes a crocodile versus a python, you would think that the crocodile would win hands down. But an Australian crocodile, who had come across a 10ft python found it something quite different.

In the face-off that took place in a lake in Queensland, the snake coiled around the crocodile and squeezed it to death over a prolonged five-hour battle before dragging it to land where it proceeded to swallow the giant lizard whole. The snake took all of 15 minutes to swallow the crocodile whole!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The event was witnessed by local author Tiffany Corlis who said, "It was amazing. We saw the snake fighting with the crocodile. It would roll the crocodile around to get a better grip and coil its body around the crocodile’s legs to hold it tight."


The outline of the crocodile can be seen in the Python’s body soon after the giant snake had killed and swallowed the reptile.

"The fight began in the water - the crocodile was trying to hold its head out of the water at one time, and the snake was constricting it."

"After the crocodile had died, the snake uncoiled itself, came around to the front, and started to eat the crocodile, face-first."
