Causes could be parasites (potentially consumed in her prey), or the rate of feeding; there is a finite amount of space in a digestive tract, and a higher rate of feeding means that there needs to be a higher rate of passage of digesta.

This is a very general explanation, but please let me know if I should explain further.
