Locals kill a very gigantic snake which was
though to have swallowed a calf.
The locals were amazed to find out that the
snake had not eaten their livestock, but was
rather heavily pregnant. Its swollen stomach
contained dozens of eggs.
According to Daily Mail UK, the incident
happened in Nigeria where local media said
the snake had been killed over accusations
it had been feasting on farmers’ livestock.
However, images show, the snake was not
overweight because of its last meal, it was
actually pregnant.
The locals who killed a large snake thought
to be an anaconda, found out that it had
dozens of eggs in its belly.
There have been some reports of African
rock pythons, which is the continent’s
biggest snake and one of the world’s largest,
growing up to a massive 6m in length.
Like all pythons, the African rock python is
non-venomous and kills its prey by
constriction. After gripping the prey, the
snake coils around it, tightening its coils
every time the victim breathes out.
The African rock python feeds on a variety
of large rodents, monkeys, warthog,
antelopes, fruit bats, monitor lizards and
even crocodiles in forest areas, and on rats,
poultry, dogs and goats in suburban areas.
Occasionally, it may eat the cubs of big cats
such as leopards, lions, and cheetahs and
puppies of big dogs such as hyenas and
cape-hunting dogs.
