Python Pops after Swallowing Aligator

A 13-foot Burmese python in the Everglades National Park tried to swallow a six-foot alligator. Apparently, it was too big a bite. The python population was introduced in the Everglades by people dumping their pets.

The gory evidence of the latest gator-python encounter — the fourth documented in the past three years — was discovered and photographed last week by a helicopter pilot and wildlife researcher. The alligator may have clawed at the python's stomach as the snake tried to digest it. AP Boing Boing
