It ’s been a harsh class for serpent eat thing . certain , any halfwit could’vetold that python eating a porcupine was a bad call , but plainly , snacking on your own kind is , too . What ’s next , we ’re not countenance to eat bacon any longer ? !
It ’s not light what exactly happened between these two snakes , which were photographed by Geoff Mitchell several weeks back in Griffith , New South Wales . Another local divvy up the photo with theAustralian Zoo on Facebook , hoping a grouping of direct animal scientist be able might exuviate some light on the matter . Nah .
“ This is certainly unusual , ” the zoo responded . “ We ca n’t imagine a mordant snake mount into another Snake River but this full position is very foreign . We would still suggest that the brown one was eat on the Negro but we will never have intercourse for certain . ”
The post has polarise the internet , with some insisting that brown Hydra exhaust smutty snake first , others insist brown snake was short long before fateful snake decided to crawl in its mouth and jab around . In either casing , there are no actual victor to be found in this post , seeing as how neither snake lived to tell the tale . Perhaps they were both run over by a tractor , or maybe a hawk come along and busted the political party up . possibly the whole affair was a setup perpetrated by some twisted snake - hater .
In any suit , the message to all living ophidian is clear : think carefully before you put that in your mouth .
