This Snake needs a Doctor

[Snakedoctor]

An unusual clash between a 6-foot (1.8m) alligator and a 13-foot (3.9m) python has left two of the deadliest predators dead in Florida's swamps.

The Burmese python tried to swallow its fearsome rival whole but then exploded.

The remains of the two giant reptiles were found by astonished rangers in the Everglades National Park.

The rangers say the find suggests that non-native Burmese pythons might even challenge alligators' leading position in the food chain in the swamps.

I'm surprised the alligator was still alive when it was swallowed.

"Clearly, if they can kill an alligator they can kill other species," Prof Mazzotti said.

That's the difference between professors and us mortals, they know these things.

They also have the power to change these things like pluto no longer being a planet
