Burmese Python vs. Alligator

Result: Ummm… ?

Woah! That is one of the freakiest things I've ever seen.

I'm not even sure what is going on in that photo!

Tell me about it! I would've thought it was a hoax if it wasn't on the BBC website.

Seems odd that the python would swallow the 'gator before crushing it to death, but being an ex-pet it's probably unaware of normal acceptable practice.

You'd want to read the link, Victoria :0)

But, in brief,
Burmese python swallows alligator – alligator not quite dead – claws python from inside – python explodes.

This was the most awesome thing I've read on the BBC all week.
