African Rock Python Kills And Swallows A Large Prey

Description
Africa’s largest snake species and one of the world's largest, the typical African rock python adult measures 4.8 m (16 ft). Rumors of specimens over 6 m (20 ft) are considered reliable, although larger specimens have never been confirmed. Weights are reportedly in the range of 44 to 55 kg (97 to 120 lb), with a few weighing 91 kg (200 lb) or more. One specimen, reportedly 7 m (23 ft) in length, was killed by K.H. Kroft in 1958 and was claimed to have a had 1.5 m (4.9 ft) juvenile Nile crocodile in its stomach.
The snake varies considerably in body size between different areas. In general, it is smaller in highly populated regions, such as in southern Nigeria, only reaching its maximum length in areas such as Sierra Leone, where the human population density is lower. Males are typically smaller than females.
