That reminds me - growing up, we had burmese pythons. We bred rabbits (and then chickens when rabbits proved difficult to reliably breed) to feed them.

On a really hot day, a couple rabbits expired from the heat despite having ice blocks in their cages that were in the shade.

The pythons refused to eat them.

Mom put them in the oven for 15 minutes on warm (real oven, not microwave). After that - they took them.
