Seems like they could at least refrigerate the snake for a few minutes so it doesn’t know what hits it. And yes, that’s what a wild seven foot python looks like. It isn’t as fat as your typical captive, is it? They don’t eat endangered panthers or school children, they pretty much eat rats. And if we remove them all, we will have lots and lots of rats because we killed all the other snakes first. This barbaric story is the greatest thing yet in the publicized python coverage if you want, as I do, to see them accepted as a beneficial part of the altered food chain in rural south Florida. They would not exist if there were not a place for them. That’s how nature works.
